Leaving Me



Leaving Me
By Phillip Michael Oct 2011

Tired
Distraught
I wonder if I'd get caught

                                   The room spins
                                   I'm stuck in the whirlwind
                                   Is this ever
                                   Going to end

My eyes are open
But I still see you
Like I'm getting
A little preview

                                  My body aches
                                   From the pain
                                   Of dreaming about you
                                   Over and over again

The spell you've casted
Down upon me
Is driving me deeper
Into insanity

                                   I don't understand
                                   The less you acknowledge me
                                   The more I want you
                                   All for me

What are you doing to me

                                   Sleepless minutes
                                   Hours and days
                                   I'm gonna make you
                                   Ef-en pay

Pay for treating me
This way

                                   Even though you have no clue
                                   You need to die
                                   Cuz I'm so in love with you

I hear your name
And I swear
You're right there
Whispering in my ear

                                   Let me just make it clear
                                   I'm going to
                                   Take you away from here

Lock you up
And throw away the key

                                   Making you pay
                                   For leaving me
