Now could it be that I no longer see All the things that you had done for me I was your true believer You were my preferred company Your words were a spell, your words gave hell A fever dream that I reaped You knocked me down, then left this town And now you linger above me But why do I lie? And say to myself it's alright My hands are tied, well that's the crime The fear is making me die So, cut me deep, like a knife Make me bleed, make me fight I've gone so numb, I'm lost inside I want to feel like I'm alive So, cut me deep, like a knife Make me bleed, till I feel right I've gone so numb, I'm dead inside I want to feel like I'm alive But why do I feel so strongly About this thing that destroys me You were my lone receiver But now I lay in apathy Your words were a spell, your words gave me hell A fever dream that I reaped You knocked me down, then left this town And now you're somewhere above me But why do I cry? And stay in comfort and never try Say I'm too tired, the coward's lie While each little piece of me dies Melancholy why do you shake my bones Reminding me why I am all alone? I was fighting wars and not knowing the cost Now I realize all that I have lost Now these darkened streets are all I call my own I'm just a lonely ghost in a burned down home And I have this fear that I'm too far gone And all from what cost? Melancholy why do you shake my bones Reminding me why I am all alone? I was fighting wars and not knowing the cost Now I realize all that I have lost To feel like I'm alive To feel again
