Stripped Away
A gash in the chest, my heart exposed.
artery slashed, my life bleeds out.
these are the things, you did to me
these are the things, you could not see.
My life is gone; Stripped away
My soul is tainted, with my blood.
You see me die again and again.
You laugh, I laugh; All goes dark
Covered in sin, covered in hate
I see you in my dreams.
Like an angel, like a demon
you're somewhere in between
Where is heaven, what is hell?
this place is made for both.
roses fade out, ashes fade in.
and yet you do not know.
This is hell, not a heaven
A place where we can burn
Kill me now, and I'll kill you later
and then we can start again.
A gash in the chest, my lungs exposed
you see my very last breath
I say your name, but you say his.
and my life is stripped away.
artery slashed, my life bleeds out.
these are the things, you did to me
these are the things, you could not see.
My life is gone; Stripped away
My soul is tainted, with my blood.
You see me die again and again.
You laugh, I laugh; All goes dark
Covered in sin, covered in hate
I see you in my dreams.
Like an angel, like a demon
you're somewhere in between
Where is heaven, what is hell?
this place is made for both.
roses fade out, ashes fade in.
and yet you do not know.
This is hell, not a heaven
A place where we can burn
Kill me now, and I'll kill you later
and then we can start again.
A gash in the chest, my lungs exposed
you see my very last breath
I say your name, but you say his.
and my life is stripped away.
