I've been waiting such a long time

And I can't tell you that I'm wasted
And I can't tell you that I'm wasted on you
And I think about your body
How it's wasting
how it's wasting
And I'm wasted telling jokes to you
'Cause you can't hear me
you can't hear me
You can't hear a word I'm saying
And you're not here
But your body is getting closer every day
 
And I wade
 
Until I'm knee deep in water, I can't breathe
And I can never tеll you that I've had enough
And I can nevеr make it stop
And I can't tell you that I'm wasted on you
 
So I wade deeper
Plunge my head into the water
Sink into it, rise above it
Climb into the sky, I love it
I love it
 
Do you ever think about
Who you were then and who you are now?
 
And I miss you but I'll never ever,
ever
ever
ever....

Scream into the void

You said
this would be
The last time you'd ever hurt me
You said
this would be the last time I'd ever cry
Last time
I didn't know
How was I supposed to know
This time
I found it
I know how to scream
I don't owe you anything
I'm not part of you
You can't take away everything
I'm not part of you
