As You Lay Dying

There's an emptiness inside of me

I'm dying and I'm the only one who knows

No one sees my agony

No one cares to

They always leave me here

To drown in my own blood

I'm surrounded in sorrow

And nothing else comes through

It cuts so deep you can't see it bleed

But I feel it everyday

The pain screams from my bleeding heart

Just to fall upon the deaf ears of those fiends

Who are to concerned to see

The pain ripping up my soul

I can\'t cry anymore

You dried my soul

The only way to deal is take this blade

And let it dance upon my arm

And imagine it's your face

And your blood

But I just can't get myself to see

The darkness lying within me

And as this blood runs down

I hope it chokes you

I hope you die

I never loved you anyway

I love this blood

It\'s so calming

All that I can depend on

Is my broken soul.

You stole my child hood

You stole my life

And you don't care

Don't even know

But one day you'll be sure

To notice my hell, my misery

As you lay dead and bleeding

And me holding the bloody knife

Over your severed body

You'll know now

As you lay dying.
