Hate me if you really want to
Break me if that's what you need to do
I'm holding onto you
There must be hope left for you
I won't believe that you've always been this way
How could this happen in just one day?

I'd love you if you'd only let me
I'd catch you if we weren't both falling

You've broken me down now
How does it feel now
To know that I'm helpless
To defend against your torments?
I'll stay here but keep my distance
My spirits anything but lifted

I'd love you if you'd only let me
(But you've left me alone)
I'd catch you if we weren't both falling
(But you won't let me close)
Instead you stare at me through a red haze
As I slowly decay under your gaze

I have nothing left; you've taken your toll
Is that not enough or do you want more?
Your insults flying through the air
Heal me, I'm dying and scared of you

I'd love you if you'd only let me
(But you've left me alone)
I'd catch you if we weren't both falling
(But you won't let me close)
Instead you stare at me through a red haze
As I slowly decay under your gaze

As I fade away
As I fade away...
