The stars shine in the sky to write your name
And in my heart still whispers the flame
Under my bed I keep the darkest secret of my life
Along with the pain and the sadness and the knife
The one I once used to rip your precious heart out
And covered my ears to avoid hearing you shout
Yet the echo remained and hunted me at night
Like your tears on the pillow after a hideous fight
For the longest time I leaped between love and hate
And now when I've finally chose, it is too late
Because you've seen the real me in all my glory
And there is no point in reading the book when you already
know the story
So forgive me if sometimes I seem to forget
For to break what you've worked so hard to rebuild is not my
intent
But I only know who you were and it's hard to let go
Because no matter what had changed I still want you so
And I could go on and on with silky words of love
Win you over, build you a pedestal and place it way above
Or play "friends", and reminisce over a drink
Hold your hand, cheer you up and make you think
But onward I go as dark shadows threat to chase me away
As I'm drifting after your blue eyes that force me to stay
Don't pay attention to my desperate scream of life
Remember... forever I'll be holding that knife
