My Future Died Today (Demo)

You have one new voice message

I saw an old love today

She asked if I'm okay

I plainly lied and said I'm happy

I didn't feel guilt or remorse

These sorts of things will run their course

And I'll just sit here

And watch this river flow

As crimson red seeps out of my soul

I'll think about you growing old

And crying softly as this story is told

Let me go, let me fade away

Till there's nothing left

To try and save

Let me go, let me fade away

Till you can't remember the look

Of the smile on my face

My features turn blurry

As the days turn to weeks

Let me be your greatest what if

But never meant to be

I saw my future die today

She slowly turned away

Through myriads of disappointment and shame

The floodgates have all opened now

Filling up our lungs, we're all gonna drown

Your dress, it looked so white

Bathed by candlelight

I saw its bloodstained eyes

The bracelet that you made

With all the love you gave

And the lies I pled

But now it's stained with red

Let me go, let me fade away

Till there's nothing left

To try and save

Let me go, let me fade away

Till you can't remember the look

Of the smile on my face

My features turn blurry

As the days turn to weeks

Let me be your greatest what if

But never meant to be

Promise me you'll never be alone again

Because you can be loved

Life without me will end up the same

And it'll get better someday

After all, we all end the same
