Absolutely Zero

Absolutely zero

Is what you give to me

The less I give

The more you take

I try to escape 

This sorry little fate

You make me scream

Forget how to think

 

All the dreams I've had 

No longer mean a thing

You crush my bones

Then lie to to my face

Lying, your poison of choice

Your words sink into me

Burn my throat 

I swallow, hoping it will end

I've climbed too many cliffs 

Just to fall over and over and over again

Crossed too many streams

Just to be pulled under the current

I need one thing

A second chance

A brand new start

Someting I've never been able to comprehend
