Before I Go

before you go i have something to give you
just look inside this box
it's everything that reminds me of you
just take it before my heart locks
it contains every picture i've collected of you,
every note that you wrote to me
anything i ever got from you
i'm giving it to you because i don't want to see
take the fragance i put on every morning
that i looked forward to seeing you
i can't bear to do this anymore
all of these moments are too hard to get through
take back the watch you broke of mine
i don't care if you paid for a new one
take the necklace you gave me
before my head meets my gun
the very sight of all these things
reminds me of what i can't have
it's not that i'm being selfish
i just can't bear the tears, or the laughs
take back the money i owe you
for everytime you bought me lunch
i was such a fool;
i never expected to love you this much
take back all of the good times
all of our inside jokes
although they used to make me laugh
now all i do is choke
a little brown bottle with liquid inside
is the last thing i want you to take
unscrew the cap and take a sip
trust me, it's no mistake
blood and water is the mixture
for those who die of a broken heart
for those who could not live happy lives
for whose worlds were falling apart
it contains every drop of blood
that i shed cutting myself for you
it contains every tear that i cried
wondering if i could make it through
so take sip and if you can
down the whole damn drink by tomorrow
i want you to endulge in bitter taste
as you swallow all of my sorrow
so take this box as i walk away
don't give me a second glance
i'm trying so hard to be over you
and if you look at me,
i know without a doubt i'll come running back
