For you...

by Lost Girl   Mar 23, 2005


For you I will promise,
To stay here one more night,
So I’ll wake up tomorrow,
In the bitter morning light,

Out of sight and out of mind,
That’s all it’ll ever be,
Just memories of bad dreams,
I’ll once again be me,

I tied the rope so tightly,
But now I’ll let it go,
I’ve caused you so much pain,
But I never wanted you to know,

For you I cried an ocean,
Of poisoned crimson tears,
At night I sit and hope and dream,
Wishing away your fears,

Sometimes as the dark draws in,
I’ll light an amber flame,
I’ll banish all your demons,
And then I’ll be the same,

I will close my eyes on madness,
And shut the door on pain,
All these things I’ll put behind me,
Like English Summer rain,

For you I’ll stop the bleeding,
I will suffocate the hurt,
I will give you air to breath,
As I rot I the dirt,

I will hide away my feelings,
The ones that don’t exist,
I will cover up the signs,
That everyone but you missed,

I’ll pick flowers in the summer,
And dance gladly in the spring,
I’ll forget about the feelings,
That I know winter will bring,

For you I made a rainbow,
For you I went insane,
For you I fell in love,
So I slit my wrists again.
