The Only One For Me



Are they fake tears?
Falling from hollowed out eyes.
Do you really care?
Or waiting to kill me with your goodbye.

Her words to me burn deep,
Inside my mind they blaze.
Will you mend my heart?
Or watch the light in my eyes fade?

My walls are closing in,
In the darkness alone will i die?
Will you be the one to save me?
To tell me its forever you and I.

This ache in my chest,
Is from you and her alone.
This emptyness thats consuming me,
Will eat away my flesh and leave only bones.

Its you the one i want,
So how can i make you see?
That she doesnt deserve you love,
And that your the only one for me.
