What's Left of Us

Am I the cure or the cancer?
 Is this what it takes to save face
 To watch our world cave in and fail
 There's only hurt in this place
 My words wear the weight of betrayal
 What more do you want from this life?
 A high price to pay, for sacrifice
 It's be happy, give in leave
 Rip me to pieces
 Or you'll see me tear at the seams
 What if I can't face what I became when you left me?
 To lay waste to everything?
 Is this what it takes, to pretend I'm okay
 Listen closely
 This home we built
 Holds a hole for the lonely
 My harshest critic
 A simple fix
 A break in communication
 An elixir for distance
 It kept you at bay, it kept me contained
 The same distance that pushed you away
 I'll forgive myself but I will not forget
 You'll forever be inside my head
 I found myself in your absence
 Though I'm better off in the end
 Stop pretending
 I'm ready to move on
 Or ready for you to be gone
 I know it makes me selfish and wrong
 Maybe you're just better off
 Pretending I'm ready to move on
 Detachment's dead and gone
 If it makes me selfish and wrong
 I just can't do this anymore
 I'll forgive myself but I will not forget
 You'll forever be inside my head
 I found myself in your absence
 Though I'm better off in the end
 What's left of us
 The attachment is dead and gone
 I just can't do this anymore
 Am I the cure or the cancer?
 The truth tears me apart
 I was never enough
