This Is A Standoff

I should have listened to the sound of your voice and watched you cautiously
pain and guilt wont live here now youre taken away from me
you left a note to remind all of us to push and carry on
and thats why this ignorance will prove me I was wrong
I know you distraught conscience took your innocence away
I know your lease on life was sold indifferent we all paid
I finally found affliction couldnt hurt
with all the things you pushed away
punishing yourself just made it worse
and I cant wait to live again
I never wanted anything, except relive what times I left you there
I should have met you by the wall disarranged inhaling ious
the thought of intervention pushed aside what made you lonely
were all adjusted by perceptions, twisted notions youve seen through
you put a wall around the very place you faded to
and youre so berated with this visions every night
you really need someone to remind you its alright
I finally found affliction couldnt hurt
with all the things you pushed away
punishing yourself just made it worse
and I cant wait to live again
I never wanted anything, except relive what times I left you there
and youre so ocupated with this visions every night
you need someone to remind you its alright
I finally found affliction couldnt hurt
of all the things you pushed away
punishing yourself just made it worse
and I cant wait to live again
I never wanted anything, except relive what times I left you there
