The last chance I had

Was the final straw for you

The record broke

The minute I saw you

And the cords in the phone

Wrap themself around my throat

And my tears betray the pain I hide

Your blood doesn't scare me

So much as your painful touch

I lay dead on the floor

With nothing left to say

I know I never had a chance to speak

Not when I knew you were in the room

Baby come and save me

I don't wanna sleep

Not in this coffin where I fell

Not in this ocean keep

Don't wanna waste your time

Even though you wasted mine

Don't want to lose your crime

But you never knew

I can't remember your name

But I clearly know your face

I'm so far gone

I will never know my fame

You just lay down

Without a word or sound

Without a cause

You lay down

Because you'd rather give up

Then put up

With the awful thing you've done

I lay dead on the floor

With nothing left to say

I know I never had a chance to speak

Not when I knew you were in the room

Baby come and save me

I don't wanna sleep

Not in this coffin where I fell

Not in this ocean keep

Don't wanna waste your time

Even though you wasted mine

Don't want to lose your crime

But you never knew

You can't tell me anything

You never could

So I'll let you know

I'm cold baby

But you're not listening for the door

Not listening for my call from the floor

I can't remember your name

But I clearly know your face

Don't wanna waste your time

Even though you wasted mine

Don't want to lose your crime

But you never knew

You'll never know how you did it

I'll never tell them why you made it

Just a day

Moments passed

And here I am in front of this glass

And you're looking back

We all know your crime

But you'll never find out mine...
