Racing

Go ahead and forget me
Forget everything we've been through
Because I'm forgetting you
I'm starting to forget why I love you
Forgetting the you I'm crazy about,
But I'm still so crazy about you
Am I crazy for continuing to want you?
To want to hold you once again?
If that makes me crazy, I'll be insane
Because I want to scream your name
I want to go to the highest hill in this state
And state your name, loud and clear
So everyone around here
Can hear me
I want them to hear my agony
I want them to feel my anguish, you
Extinguished my flame, it burned
It burned so brightly it burned
My eyes, so all I could see by
Was my flame, burning behind my blindness
I'd grown used to it, the burning
It had replaced the burns on my legs
The cuts on my arms
The scars, all the marks
And it still burns, but it burns black
How am I to see through the black with
The black flame, fueled by the blade in my back
But I'm back for more pain
I'm waiting for you again
And you can't just end the game,
Because this game is keeping me sane
This cat and mouse trick you enjoy so much
Is exactly what's keeping me here,
Here, where I'm no longer wanted
Here, where I no longer want to be
It's like Evanescence mixed with Stone Sour
I'm alone in my mind
But your ghost still hasn't left
And I'm growing desperate
I'm desperate for some redemption,
Some attention
Someone hold my hand, I'm losing my direction
And I just want to feel you,
Feeling your memory build up inside me
But I want to tear you down
Like you tore me down
Tore me apart with your bare hands
Your bear hands are strong, stronger than me
Stronger than I could ever be
And I want to grab a stick again
And beat you in the face again
But sticks and stones can only break bones
And I want you to hurt
I want you to feel this hurt
It hurts, being this numb
Like I've fallen asleep, been here for so long
And I want to start walking, but I can't feel my feet
Wake up! I cry, but it just repeats
Through the hills, resounding through the night
And I just want to fall back down, and never resume this flight
Because you've won this fight
And I'm tired of fighting
I just want to rest,
God rest my soul
Like a toy soldier, I've been through too much
I've been chewed on, thrown on the floor
Where it's cold, but it's better than the heat
I feel when you're here, you make my heart race
And I'm racing to get away
Racing to beat time, beat you back
I just want you back..
