I don’t want to leave;

The thought of walking away,

Leaving you astray

Believe me; I want to stay.

But I can’t

It’s for our own good;

So after this dance

I have to go

Before I change my mind

Being stuck in your trance.

Please understand;

I didn’t want it to go this way.

I’m wielding a blade and

I can’t protect you with this weapon

The only shield I can give you;

Is that I walk away.

So let’s take in this second

And dance this night today.

The moment you close your eyes

To the time they open

You will realize that

I’ve been feeding you lies.

I am broken

I’d only cut you if I had stay.

So please don’t cry,

Enjoy these nights

And let me die

From the back of your mind.
