Dead to Me

I used to love you once long ago I opened my door and gave you a home You were my cairn and you were my creed My everything or at least so I thought Something died on the day that you left me Melodies, memories and my dreams Something left, something came, something darker Someone let the cold inside You ate my bread and drank from my well I dressed you in silk, sold all I could sell So I could keep your heart satisfied But every time you just asked me for more Deeper down to the hole where you made me To the vortex of pain that will stain me I won't drown, I won't lie, I won't die here I will fight, I will rise again I won't write you an ode nor confession Not a song but a war declaration Story told from the dawn of creation Symphony with a grim orchestration You were the harlot of my heart Like a fool I played my part But now you're hanging on your cross And I am banging in the nails You're no one Mean nothing You're worthless Dead to Me Years they have passed and I'm over you I've licked all my wounds and forged me anew I wish I could say I wish you the best, it isn't true I won't forgive, won't forget I won't write you an ode nor confession Not a song but a war declaration Story told from the dawn of creation Symphony with a grim orchestration You were the harlot of my heart Like a fool I played my part But now you're hanging on your cross And I am banging in the nails You're no one Mean nothing You're worthless Dead to Me You were the harlot of my heart Like a fool I played my part But now you're hanging on your cross And I am banging in the nails You're no one Mean nothing You're worthless Dead to Me You were the harlot of my heart Like a fool I played my part But now you're hanging on your cross And I am banging in the nails You're no one Mean nothing You're worthless Dead to Me
