You hid your skeletons when I had shown you mine
You woke the devil that I thought you'd left behind
I saw the evidence, the crimson soaking through
Ten thousand promises, ten thousand ways to lose
And you held it all
But you were careless to let it fall
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone, I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
My smile was taken long ago
If I can change, I hope I never know
I watched you fall apart and chased you to the end
I left with emptiness that words can not defend
You'll never know what I became because of you
Ten thousand promises, ten thousand ways to lose
So save your breath, I will not hear
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
My own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
So break yourself against my stones
(And you held it all)
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
(But you were careless to let it fall)
You sold me out to save yourself
And I won't listen to your shame
(And you held it all)
You ran away - you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
(And I was by your side)
My love was punished long ago
If you still care, don't ever let me know
If you still care, don't ever let me know
