Fake Smiles and Jet-Black Feelings

Late night I'm writing about you
But why
Should I
You're gone and I'm too late
Did you even care
Did you ever care
Did you know that I loved you
A goodbye was all I needed

CHORUS* Black roses fall at your feet
I'll say a prayer for you
I will remember you
Cause you forgot me
I'm still wasting tears on you
Staining heaven on this paper
But you can't stop it

You could have saved yourself
Fake the emotions again
Keep wearing the mask they all know so well
What should I do now
You were the one who helped
Free me from me

CHORUS (X2)

I'm lying in this tub
The water fills it up
And it's so cliche
Throwing your life away
Clutching to this darkness, secretly wanting light
Couldn't you have stayed just one more night
Are you sleeping Are you sleeping
I've lost myself in endless dreaming

(Are you sleeping)
What's this life for
(Are you sleeping)
I don't want it anymore
(I don't need it)
That's what you told me
Why aren't you breathing

CHORUS
