The emptiness I harbored in the questions that I asked Was almost palpable, it tasted like the soft skin on your back And when I said, "Where did you go?" What I meant was Since you left, I haven't had the chance to hate you Nearly half as much as I've hated myself We were in love, at least that's what I came to call it I was never really quite sure if it was Because in growing up the hardest lesson learned Is just because you love someone It doesn't mean they love you in return I always thought you'd fade when I buried you and me But on our grave a bed of flowers bloomed And now each day you grow more beautiful as I'm left to decay I guess it's true that some things never change And it's been quite a long time now, but I'm still so weak I found a bliss in my ignorance until ignorance found hell in me When I said, "Where did you go?" What I meant was Since you left, I haven't had the chance to hate you Half as much as I loved you then ♪ It's been a long time now But I still spend my nights laying awake The kind of tired that sleep wouldn't shake The kind of empty that fills the entire space in my chest cavity Where I tried to keep you safe, but you escaped
