lyrics

Cold damp air
grimy walls
and the fresh smell of chemicals
permeates the air
burning my nostrils
a sharp sting in my arms
lost in the streetlights
fumes of old cars
pollutes my lungs

memories of another life
nostalgia floods me
like a plague before I'm hit
by blinding lights of a speeding car
another opportunity missed
another attempt that passed

my love is so strong
but it's never enough
I always try my best
but I'm always abandoned
like these buildings I cross
shut down and vandalised
like what's left of my heart
like my wrists it bleeds
like my memory it hurts

maybe I was never meant to be loved?
another seizure avoided
as I'm passing more fluorescent lights
that leads to nowhere
police sirens are heard in the distance
maybe people are starting to worry?
no, they don't care enough to
it's funny
I can care so much
so much I'd walk endless miles in the rain
just to see someone I love for five minutes
but nobody cares at all for me
not my friends
not my family
no one...
