Severed

You will always give up
You always do
And time won't let you follow through
Your weakness has shown
And now you're everything they've thrown at you
You knew the time was coming
You cast yourself adrift
You burned your empty words
And fucked it up again
Now the colors drain like blood
Down the canvas you abandoned
And shadows hide the words
You replaced with excuses
But excuses lose their weight
When you're forced into a corner
And the one you once believed in
Has left you there alone

Now what can you show
For all the dreams you trampled on
Now how does it feel
When everything you had is gone
Now what can you show
For the life you fought so hard to live
Now how does it feel
Now how does it feel
How can you walk away when this was everything you wanted
Now how can you say this was nothing that you needed
How can you fall apart in a time that is so crucial
Now how does it feel
Now how does it feel

You are too lost
You'll always be
Too caught up in your world to see
Reality has spoken and you've turned the other way
You'll always have a reason to deny what you've destroyed
You burned your acid words
And left it all behind
Now the reasons fall like cinders from the fire you avoided
And whispers shun the failures you tried so hard to hide
But whispers lose their trust when you're lost and apathetic
And the one you once believed in is a total fucking loss
