Knife at My Throat

[Scoleciphobic]

Standing in the hallway

I see you by the lockers

I try to meet your gaze

But you won’t look up to meet mine

I know something is wrong

I have for a really long time

Every time I ask

You won’t answer

My heart’s just beginning to break



There’s a knife at my throat

Held by a vicious backstabber

Someone I thought I could trust

To always understand

Someone I learned to love

That someone is you



Standing in the rain

I see the emptiness in your eyes

Again I ask what’s wrong

You look at me

And tell me things I can’t take

I want to know why

I want to scream at you

I want to hate you

But I can’t

All I can do is cry

My heart’s broken in two



There’s a knife at my throat

Held by a vicious backstabber

Someone I thought I could trust

To always understand

Someone I learned to love

That someone is you



Standing before you

I can’t sense your feelings

You’ve become a wall to me

I don’t know what to do

I can’t believe what you say

Do you still love me?

Did you ever?

How could you do this to me?

Acting like it was all a game

Before throwing my life away

I know I won’t be the same

My heart’s shattered in a million pieces



There’s a knife at my throat

Held by a vicious backstabber

Someone I thought I could trust

To always understand

Someone I learned to love

That someone is you



I gave you the keys to my heart

Hoping that we would never part

But you just tossed them into the sea

Not giving a nuts about what happened to me



There’s a knife at my throat

Held by a vicious backstabber

Someone I thought I could trust

To always understand

Someone I learned to love

That someone is you



Standing on my own

I refuse to listen to your cries

You’ve hurt me to the core

It’s truly the last time

I say, “It’s over.”<br>
Then turn to walk away

I don’t look back until the end

To find you crying on the sidewalk

I want to go to you

But I need time to heal

Maybe one day I’ll forgive you

But hurt’s all I feel

My heart is dead



There’s a knife at my throat

Held by a vicious backstabber

Someone I thought I could trust

To always understand

Someone I learned to love

That someone was you
