Define The Great Line

Writing On The Walls

so glad i ran from you

[INTRO]
They said you were fine…
They said you’d sleep it off…
But I knew…
I fucking knew something was wrong…

[VERSE 1]
Cold floor, blank stare, lights too dim
Your name stuck on the edge of my skin
I called, you never fucking moved
And the silence in that room was rude
They could’ve helped
They could’ve stayed
But they watched from the shadows
And fucking walked away
Left you breathing slow and weak
Like your life didn’t mean a fucking thing
What kind of world just lets that happen
Then shrugs it off like “shit just happens”
Your lips were blue
Your hands were cold
And I was screaming at God
“You fucking stole her soul”

[PRE-CHORUS]
You weren’t trash
You weren’t lost
You were sick in a world that counts the cost
And they chose comfort over your life
Now I’m choking on the afterlife

[CHORUS]
I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY LEFT YOU TO FUCKING DIE
LIKE YOU WERE NOTHING
LIKE YOU DIDN’T FUCKING TRY
I WOULD’VE RIPPED THE SKY APART
JUST TO MAKE YOUR HEART BEAT ONE MORE TIME
THEY LEFT YOU THERE
LIKE YOU WERE ALREADY DEAD
NOW YOUR NAME IS JUST
A SCREAM IN MY FUCKING HEAD

[VERSE 2]
You were drowning and nobody cared
Just another body, just another stare
I showed up late to a nightmare
And found your ghost hanging in the air
I keep replaying the scene in my head
Every word I wish I would’ve said
Every sign I missed, every lie I bought
Higher the love, harder the drop
I should’ve stayed
I should’ve known
But this fucked up world lets people die alone
Now your clothes still smell like you
And that’s the cruelest fucking thing they could do

[BREAKDOWN]
You didn’t choose to be this way
You were just trying to numb the pain
But the pain took more than it gave
And now you’re just a ghost I cannot save
I’m not mad at you
I’m mad at the world
I’m mad at the drugs
I’m mad at the ones who turned and shrugged

[CHORUS]
I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY LEFT YOU TO FUCKING DIE
AND NOW I’M THE ONE
LEFT ALIVE
TO CARRY YOUR NAME
TO CARRY THIS SCAR
A LIVING MEMORIAL
OF WHO YOU FUCKING WERE
YOU WERE MORE THAN YOUR ADDICTION
MORE THAN YOUR PAIN
NOW I’M SCREAMING AT THE SKY
GOING FUCKING INSANE

[BRIDGE]
If I could trade places, I’d do it tonight
If I could rewrite wrong to right
But life don’t work like that, I know
So I carry you wherever I go
In my veins
In my chest
In the shattered pieces of what’s left

[FINAL CHORUS]
I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY LEFT YOU TO DIE
I CAN’T BELIEVE I HAD TO SAY GOODBYE
YOU WERE LOVED
EVEN IF YOU COULDN’T SEE
NOW THIS SONG IS ALL THAT’S LEFT OF WE
AND I’LL SCREAM YOUR NAME
UNTIL MY LAST BREATH TOO
BECAUSE THIS FUCKED UP WORLD
DOESN’T DESERVE YOU

[OUTRO]
You should still be here…
And I’ll never forgive them for that…
