I don't know why I feel so unstable
Like I will shatter into pieces
Like glass that scatters over the table
Or like a ripped up love note
end up on the sidewalk

And I don't know why I feel like this
But I do know one thing
It's because of you
I'll never touch your lips again
Or brush against your skin again

I used to write these words just for you
And now I right these words despite of you
But I rather have it this way
then be lied by your eyes again

Like hemlock your lies
they dripped into my ears
poisoning my thoughts
poisoning my dreams

And my lips have gone blue
With the turning of the season
And my hearing's gone bad
With the rushing of the water
And the chains to the cement block
have broken now

I wish someone would save this river
Before I meet the rapids
Before I meet the waterfall
Wrap me up in blankets to restore my color
