When I Met You

You have just everythingBut nothing at allNow the moon is darkFeels like pain againYou could feel my breathYou opened my eyesFor I could not seeWhen I met youWhen I met you (you're feeling depressed)I could not speak (ou're drowning in pain)You opened my mouth (you're walking in midst)You opened my heart (you're leaving again)My spirit shows (she tore you down)The marks and stains (happens all the same)Could not exist (you were afraid)When I met youNow it's all the sameIt's all the sameThe sun is goneIt's all the sameBut when I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youYou were afraid (when I met you)She stole your heart (when I met you)You don't understand (when I met you)Should be ashamed (when I met you)You should have walked(I was the walking dead)She tore you down (I was kicked in the head)She tore you downDid you actually becomeThe center of my worldThe seams of my lifeThe streams of daydreamLike the wounds of a friendAnother the kiss of a foeThe pack of a blackened eyeA life or the crownWhen I met youI could not speakHow I met youThen I met youMy spirit growsMy kind of truthCould not existWhen I met youHow it's all the sameIt's all the sameThe sun is goneIt's all the sameBut when I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youWhen I met youI was the walking deadI was kicked in the headIt was such a timeIt was such a timeI was crushed insideI was torn insideWhen I met youWhen I met youI was too insaneCould not trust a thingI was off my headI was filled with truthIt was not god's truthBefore I met you
