Killing me

I stare at lifeless eyes
Like talking to myself
Avoiding questions why?
Just like a criminal

What felt like the beginning
Comes racing to an ending
It's hard to watch you do this again

I sit you down
You blocked it out
Am I something you can live without?

I built you up
You let me down
So I'm begging you to make a sound

I'm desperate to make you see
It's more than just words
I need you here with me

You're facing disaster
You should know
What's hurting you
Is killing me

You drift away convinced
That this would be your last
You lost yourself again
Denial at its best

What felt like it was working
Seems only to be hurting
It's hard to watch you do this again

Skin and bones have lost their shape
There's a stranger that is in your place

I'm desperate to make you see
It's more than just words
I need you here with me

You're facing disaster
You should know
What's hurting you
Is killing me

It's like I'm invisible to you
Now I gotta make you see
The poison has pushed away the truth
And it's making me weak

So I wait hoping that the phone doesn't ring
And I hate feeling like I can't save you from this shame
Maybe it's not too late

Skin and bones lost their shape
There's a stranger that is in your place

I'm desperate to make you see
It's more than just words
I need you here with me

You're facing disaster
You should know
What's hurting you
Is killing me
