Tell me what to say
And lead me through the shadows
Show me the escape
Where you go I will follow

I left behind
All that I used to be
So that you'd stay with me

And you've become
Everything that I need
For my sanity

How can something so enticing
Have such awful side effects?
All the itching and the scratching
From withdrawal keeps me out of check

I am fixated
On all of the things
We were together

But those are fragments
That are better off
Lost forever

I'm falling apart piece by piece
To shards of what you have made me
But I've risen above all I've become
Turned from the pain I was trained to love

I left behind
All that I used to be
But this time
I did it for me

And you were
Everything I needed
To set me free

If I cut the strings
That held me hostage
Would I fall and shatter?

If that's what it takes
To breathe again then
Would it even matter?

How can something so enticing
Have such awful side effects?
All the itching and the scratching
From withdrawal keeps me out of check

I am fixated on all of the things
We were together
But those are fragments that are better off lost...
And just

How can something so enticing
Have such awful side effects?
All the itching and the scratching
From withdrawal keeps me out of check

I am fixated on all of the things
We were together
But those are fragments that are better off
Lost forever!
