Too Far Gone

It seems like I’m bleeding from my heart again
It seems I ought to be too numb to feel.
But your words cut like razorblades across my skin
It seems you won’t allow old wounds to heal.
It seems like I’m paying for your sins again.
And it seems as though your gain is still my loss.
It seems I’ve been a martyr now for way too long
And someday I’ll find my way down off this cross.
But I’m too far gone
Too torn apart
Too old and tired
To resurrect this decimated heart.
But if I ever live to see
the stone rolled away in front of me
I’ll quietly escape into the dawn
But I’m too far gone.
It seems like you revel in my broken heart
And it seems as if the pieces make you whole.
And your lies driven deep are like metal hitting bone
It seems you want to crucify my soul.
It seems like I’m buried deep beneath this stone
It seems like I might break if I can’t bend.
My spirit’s broken and entombed in the silence of this room
But I know someday that I will rise again.
But I’m too far gone.
Too torn apart.
Too old and tired
To resurrect this decimated heart.
Someday I hope to live to see
The stone rolled away in front of me
And I’ll quietly escape into the dawn…
But I’m too far gone.
It seems like I’m paying for your sins again.
It seems as though your gain is still my loss.
It seems I’ve been a martyr for way too long
And someday I’ll find my may down off this cross.
Repeat Chorus

Great write. I like your use of words and metaphors... I wish I could write lyrics, but they are a difficult form of poetry...
As for the topic, it's one I know very well. Recently an ex re-entered my life. It was very painful when I was with her and now I'm all mixed up again. In my situation, she never very meant to be like she was - she's just very defensive and closed off.. I lot of this piece hit the spot with me. Would like to hear it with heavy guitars and good drum work!
Again, great write!
