I gave you my heart and you played me blind Told me your words while I stood in the bind Every promise you made was a desperate crime But I kept holding on to the frayed thin line You knew all my scars but you drew even more Left me stranded alone on a tear-soaked floor Your bittersweet smile's just a weapon of war And still I keep running back like before It's all on the line, I'm breaking apart Chasing a ghost that's ripping my heart I scream your name, but you're deaf to my cries Unrequited love is where hope always dies Your poison's my cure your fire's my freeze You whisper your love while you aim to appease I choke on your sweetness that brings me to knees But pain finds a way it rarely ever leaves Every step I take back you pull me in close You're the thorn in my veins yet I crave the dose I'm drowning in you while my sanity goes But loving your chaos is what I chose It's all on the line, I'm breaking apart Chasing a ghost that's ripping my heart I scream your name, but you're deaf to my cries Unrequited love is where hope always dies
