Loneliness has found a hole in my chest. And I say ill be fine but I'm miserable at best. Now smokes are the only one who takes away my breath. And these drinks are the only ones who kiss my lips. Please come home. Please come home. Our bed now just swallows me whole. And I cant listen to the songs we loved anymore. And if I could I would've left me too. Why stay with someone who wouldn't fight for you. Please come home. Please come home. Cause I'm falling to pieces faster than you could catch me. I'll keep my head held high if this rope never breaks from the ceiling. And I know I have what it takes to build my own grave. If this love has died, then I'm ready to be by its side. Please come home. Please come home. Please come home. (I didn't mean it, I wish I never said it, please give me another chance.) Please come home. (I didn't wanna believe it, but I lost everything when you left me.) Please come home.

She says that we just need to have a talk You're not the man that I love No not at all She says she knows that times will change But when we took our vow she said, "our love will remain" She said we're a lie I can't love you This house ain't a home anymore I'd rather sink than stay a float I'm always waiting for you Always waiting for you She claims that I'm just never around I used to hold her close but now I just weigh her down She laughs and says, "I'm sure there'll be a song about me They'll say you showed a lot of heart, it's something I've never seen." She said we're a lie, we're a lie, we're a lie I can't love you This house ain't a home anymore I'd rather sink than stay a float Always waiting for you I'm always waiting for you So please just give me the truth Could I have been better? Or was I not enough for you? I wish that we could be friends But things are now different I can't look at you the same way again I can't love you This house ain't a home anymore I'd rather sink than stay a float I'm always waiting for you Always waiting for you

The Haunting 02:58
Your grave mistake Was thinking you left me all alone to die Well I found a place where I could come alive That night in the darkest shadows of my twisted mind I used that noose to climb my way out to the light It’s been seven years but you did a number on me I found the key of happiness It’s to rip that smile right off your lips You look at me like you’ve seen a ghost Is it not the end that you had hoped? Here I am About to dethrone you from your pedestal And I will drag you to the hell you put me through You wear a crown But you’re a king living on his knees Praying that you got the best of me I found the key of happiness It’s to rip that smile right off your lips You look at me like you’ve seen a ghost Is it not the end that you had hoped? They thought they buried us Turns out that we were seeds Now when we crack through the pavement We’ll show what we’ll be We are the product of their imagination Because when they tore her down They built what we’ve become I found the key of happiness It’s to rip that smile right off your lips You look at me like you’ve seen a ghost Is it not the end that you had hoped?

"You say you pray to God? You must be talking about me" She says, "I've got you begging on your knees" I know it's all my fault I could just get up and leave Maybe I like the way she hurts me She told me to take my advice and run as fast as you can Cause I'm the monster that they claim I am No there's no you and me Boy, that's just wishful thinking I'm going to destroy all of your dreams Because baby that's just me "Do you believe in love? Because I believe in that lie When you say love I see just dollar signs" Cause when she said "forever" She meant until it gets old Cause I'm not romantic I'm hopeful She told me to take my advice and run as fast as you can I'm the monster that they claim I am No there's no you and me Boy, that's just wishful thinking I'm going to destroy all of your dreams Because baby that's just me She told me to take my advice and run as fast as you can I'm the monster that they claim I am No there's no you and me Boy, that's just wishful thinking I'm going to destroy all of your dreams Because baby that's just me Because baby that's just me Because baby that's just me

You may call me a dreamer Though you know that all too well You may call me a believer Even though it's hard to tell 'Cause I know I'm fading And I know I'm losing everything you loved about me But don't let me go I can build the pieces Of everything I broke Just hold it against me I never said this would be easy But I'll try Oh I'll try Yes believe me Keep your faith in me No one will ever understand The feeling of losing things right in the palm of your hand Now I know what it's like to be a man It's when you lose your legs you still fight to stand 'Cause I know I'm fading And I know I'm losing everything you loved about me But don't let me go I can build the pieces Of everything I broke Just hold it against me I never said this would be easy But I'll try Oh I'll try Yes believe me Keep your faith in me 'Cause I know I'm fading And I know I'm losing everything you loved about me But don't let me go I can build the pieces Of everything I broke But don't let me go I can build the pieces Of everything I broke Just hold it against me I never said this would be easy But I'll try Oh I'll try Yes believe me Keep your faith in me
