Just a brittle smile you put on my face
Can’t reach out to me in confining space
Far too cold, you can’t make me understand

Reaching out of the dark
Pulling the ground from under me
Spilling all to shed your killing guilt
It weighs me down to drown me

Makes me wonder why, as you state the facts
And provide me with what your statement lacks
As the evidence speaks the truth to me

Reaching out of the dark
Pulling the ground from under me

Is this how you make yourself feel free?
Because it does not work for me
Is this how you rid yourself from the pain?
By leaving me alone again

You’re leaving me to hide, leaving me to die

Just a brittle smile to put on my face
No extended reach, no confining space
No one there to make me understand
