It’s funny how for a while
You kinda kept me alive
And still, all this time it was
suicide, suicide, it was suicide
Now I can no longer hide or deny
I have to swallow my stubborn pride
There’s nothing left here that’s true
I can’t let go of me
I have to let go of you
Sweet, deceitful love
That burned between my hands
Now you hurt too much to hold
The heart that I threw it at
(I’m so sorry)
To me, forever remains closed and stone cold
In my mind we are forever young
In reality, we’re both turning too old
Too old for games, too old for lies
Too old to close our eyes
and make love in the darkness
I turn on the light now
and I see I’m alone
These four walls that surrounds me
They only ever made up my home
I was stupid I guess
’Cause I really did live for this mess
And all this time..
It was suicide, suicide, suicide
Now I can no longer fabricate evidence
Or lie to myself in self-defense
I have to swallow my damn pride
I can’t just let this slide
I can’t fight for something that ain’t true
I can’t live without myself (I need some more time before I die)
I can and I have to live without you (oh, you know all the reasons why)
Sweet, corrupted love
that burned between my thighs
I had to kill the flame
That kept us warm all those winter nights
(I’m so sorry)
I understand now, you never felt the same
In my mind, I guess I forced you to love me
In reality, such a thing could never be
Now I got to wake up and see
That I have to choose to live in reality
I am alone in the darkness
So I leave the lights off and keep you out of my dreams
Ah, all this time, it was suicide, suicide, suicide
So much more suicidal than it seems
Sweet love, that was never really real
All this time, I was the only one to feel
It did keep me alive
At the same bloody time..
It was suicide, suicide, suicide
I found only hell with you as my guide
And I’m not sorry, and you don’t feel a thing
You never asked for the heart I now unstring
In my mind, I made it all make sense
But it made my nerves too tense
Now I see it was madness
More than it was the cure for my sadness
You never held on to me at all
I was a fool, but now I know
And now I’m ready, ‘cause all this time..
It was suicide, suicide, suicide
And by choosing life
I let you go
