My Diary in 4/4 Time

Wasting your days away
 Sleepless brown eyes
 Dark and lifeless, blood shot
 Everything seems gray
 We haven't spoke since June
 Summer set us far apart
 And fall won't bring me back to you
 How does screaming sound?
 When isolation's all you have
 Except for the mirror that's crashing down
 You've censored your own thoughts
 Protect yourself from what is right
 So you can do
 What you know is wrong
 Take one bite and spit you right back out
 Tear your eyes away
 From this mess
 That you've created
 Ignore your faults
 Take your anger out on me
 I'll take your hits in stride
 Won't slow me down one bit
 Taking all of the back roads
 So you can't be seen
 You're hiding your face
 From people who know what you did
 You've fallen victim of
 His abuse that you've been binging
 (You've been) You've been binging on
 In time for your funeral
 You packed your bags and walked away
 Finding what you
 What you lost in me
 You're quietly in despair
 Desperately quiet awaiting life
 But you're already dead
 Take one bite and spit you right back out
 Tear your eyes away
 From this mess
 That you've created
 Ignore your faults
 Take your anger out on me
 I'll take your hits in stride
 Won't slow me down one bit
 In ordinary ways
 I find other ways
 To ease the pain.
 Tear your eyes away
 From this mess
 That you've created
 Ignore your faults
 Take your anger out on me
 I'll take your hits in stride
 Won't slow me down one bit
