Tell me what to say, and lead me through the shadows.
Show me the escape, where you go I will follow.
I left behind all that I used to be, so that you'd stay with me.
And you've become everything that I need, for my sanity.
How can something so enticing have such awful side effects?
All the itching and the scratching from withdrawal keeps me out of check.
I am fixated on all of the things we were together.
But those were fragments that are better off, lost forever.
I'm falling apart piece by piece,
to shards of what you have made me.
But I've risen above all I've become,
turned form the pain I was trained to love.
I left behind all that I used to be, but this time I did it for me.
And you were everything that I needed, to set me free.
If I cut the strings that held me hostage, will it fall and shatter?
If that's what it takes to breath again then would it even matter?
Bittersweet is eons ahead of our time I swear. I can't help but fall in love with these meticulously catchy grooves and lovingly crafted melodies. Don't be afraid to fall in love with it! ODDEEO
