What's Left of Us - Patient Sixty-Seven

Am I the cure or the cancer?

Is this what it takes to save face

To watch our world cave in and fail

There’s only hurt in this place

My words wear the weight of betrayal

What more do you want from this life?

A high price to pay, for sacrifice

It’s be happy, give in leave

Rip me to pieces

Or you’ll see me tear at the seams

What if I can’t face what I became when you left me?

To lay waste to everything?

Is this what it takes, to pretend I’m okay

Listen closely

This home we built

Holds a hole for the lonely

My harshest critic

A simple fix

A break in communication

An elixir for distance

It kept you at bay, it kept me contained

The same distance that pushed you away

I’ll forgive myself but I will not forget

You’ll forever be inside my head

I found myself in your absence

Though I’m better off in the end

Stop pretending

I’m ready to move on

Or ready for you to be gone

I know it makes me selfish and wrong

Maybe you’re just better off

Pretending I’m ready to move on

Detachment’s dead and gone

If it makes me selfish and wrong

I just can’t do this anymore

I’ll forgive myself but I will not forget

You’ll forever be inside my head

I found myself in your absence

Though I’m better off in the end

What’s left of us

The attachment is dead and gone

I just can’t do this anymore

Am I the cure or the cancer?

The truth tears me apart

I was never enough

I came undone when you gave up
