Dear

Lyrics

You finally realize what I'm capable of It only took the slice from my knife and your blood to hit the rug It's funny, a second ago you were asking me to leave Now you're begging me to stay to help you breathe Are you finally ready to talk? Before you didn't have much to say You took my kindness for weakness so I'll take this the long way You were someone's little precious girl Their gleaming, darling pearl Not ready to leave this world You say you wish you told your family you love them And that you never should've put work above them You're making excuses and swearing that you'll solve them But, like you told me, "Kid, that's just not my problem" Round the stairs up to your apartment With something I should have left in the glove compartment Room 212, that's you on the top floor A condescending look greets me as you open the door You don't want to but you invite me to your kitchen I say, "We need to talk and I'd really like you to listen" You find some rude remark you think is funny to snap back You always cut me off You know I fucking hate that And now the blood in my face is swelling My fight or flight is sure as hell telling You're laughing in my face, this is accomplishing nothing Before I know it I just start cutting And it feels so good to make you cry, to make you bleed The look in your eyes as you grow weak Pull up and put the car in park Take a second alone to think in the dark There are only 2 ways that this can go Yeah, I'll bring it this time but it's just for show I'd like to have a real conversation instead I swear this time I won't lose my head Because if I do with you You're better off dead
