Nightmare

This seems much harder than before
Why can't I open up to you?
I know exactly how you feel
But it seems it just won't do

So will you tell me now
What am I waiting for?
You're slowly slipping away
And I just don't know what to say

You've given everything
That I could ever ask for
It must tear you apart
Never living up to what I had before

This wasn't something that you could've prevented
My heart's beaten and bruised
It's beaten and bruised beyond all repair
Love to me it's just a nightmare

I can't save you and I can't be what you want me to be
This is the me that you needed to see
I never amounted to anything
Brought forward by the grip of lust
I know this wasn't what you asked for

Please can you just be honest?
Why can't I open up to you
I know exactly how you feel
But it seems this just won't do
This seems much harder than before

So will you tell me now
What am I waiting for?
You're slowly slipping away
And I just don't know what to say

You'll be the voice stuck in the back of my head
I'll stand here screaming your name until I'm fucking dead

You've given everything
That I could ever ask for
You've given everything
That I could ever hope for

Brought here by a fantasy
Torn down by reality
And my mind's a hollow place
That will never be around this place
So will you turn your back on me?
So will you turn your back on me?

Brought here by a fantasy
Torn down by reality
Brought here by a fantasy
Torn down by reality

Buried by my broken thoughts
I will not fight for what I don't deserve

Why can't I open up to you?
I know exactly how you feel
But it seems it just won't do
This seems much harder than before

So will you tell me now
What am I waiting for?
You're slowly slipping away
And I just don't know what to say
