I've hung myself with broken promises
A rope woven with intertwining lies
my neck through the loop
held in a lover's knot
here I've found no peace
I struggle to find my goodbyes
As I dangle in your alibis
something between us dies

I never thought I'd be caught like this
trying to breathe without any air
swingning above the ground
grasping at anything
losing focus of the world
retching, I feel my body tear
crying because it's just not fair
this was something we were supposed to share

I've killed myself with empty words
the catalyst was a loaded gun
things you've promised
maybe casually mentioned
it all meant nothing
hanging here I weigh a ton
you wonder why you touch I shun
It's too late now it's all been done
