Red From Black

by LithiumSacrifice   Sep 5, 2007


I want you to know the truth
While I talk to you tonight
No matter what went wrong
In the end I can make things right

I need to tell you this
Something I swore not to say
But baby I will miss
You, when you're gone away
Every moment I spend dreaming
Every moment I spend awake
In my head I'll be screaming
Why the hell did you run away?

I need you to hear me
Even if these words are my last
Above all I want you to know
How much it hurts to push you to the past

Where did you go?
And where did you leave?
What are you trying to do?
Tell me anything I'll believe
Just don't say it was me.

Because I did all I could
Everything for you
I know you say I never should
But I was in love with you
Just tell me anything
Anything that is real
Just don't say you left because of me
You have no idea how this breaking heart feels

And when I hang up
You don't ever have to call
When I say goodbye
Iâ??d have to say goodbye to it all
I hope one day you see
And pray its not a day late
The poor words you delete
8 letters, I know your afraid.

It would be nice to hear the phone ring
See your name on caller ID
I know how youâ??re feeling
Youâ??re just afraid of me.

Because I'm the only thing that cares
The only one that was ever there

There goes the phone
And now you are gone
I don't know what your thinking
I don't know for how long
I finally hang it up
My finger over redial
Sleep with the phone to my ear
Hours later, its been a while

When the phone rings
It's already been a day
You called my just to tell me
That you haven't gone away
That you never left your front door
There was something holding you back
You never picked the bags off the floor
You were leaving everything,

I had changed your heart to red from black
