Your presence stifles me,
But you won’t give up and leave.
I turned the other cheek,
But now it’s too late.
I’m sick of this old game.
Always turns out the same:
You win, I’m put to shame.
You’re everything I hate.
And there’s nothing I can do about it.
[I cannot breathe.
You’re killing me slowly.
But I cannot leave.
You’re my pain,
My suicidal addiction.]
I’m ready to bury this here,
Face up to my darkest fear.
Shedding my final tear-
I’m sick of carrying your cross.
I held you along the way,
Dragged down when you’d gone astray.
I suffered your price to pay,
And what did you do about it?
You shoved it all back in my face.
[chorus]
I’ve tried to break the habit,
But I’ve lost the fight each time.
Memories become my present,
And the end’s so hard to find.
[I cannot breathe.
You’re killing me slowly.
Why can’t you see?
You’re everything I am,
My suicidal addiction.]
