I burnt your pictures, buried your letters. I couldn't save us. 
I know better ways to bleed tonight. He pulled out your heart, but you won't hold mine.
Around and round, you can tempt yourself, but you can't let go.
All of this to feel alive, the fear of building high is you might fall down.
...And I won't go back.

I keep you buried in me. I can't go back to what we had.
There's no love, no hope, the the end. 

Into the new year, I siphoned poison. I've seen the world starring back with wondering eyes.
You pulled out the core, but you won't find hope.
Alive, alone, you're so thin inside you can see your soul stumbling here into the night.
You sped up your pulse to catch me.

This is hard, all of these things I can't explain.
