An image never seen before
Seeing it across the room
It's different, I am drawn to it
Impossible to know so soon
Insecurity ran through my veins
Embarrassment shot my mind
Hidden inside a cave
Nothing left to find
The image died out
It was lost for days
Thinking it was gone forever
No words left to say
I found my way back to it
Image became more clear
As I grew more attached
My soul filled with fear
It grabbed me by the neck
Before I could speak
Choking me tightly
I couldn't breathe
My heart a broken puzzle
Nothing more to analyze
Emptiness was my drug
I was completely paralyzed
Gathering the pieces of my heart
I turned my emotions off
Letting go of this image
I just moved on
But I would see it here and there
As the days passed by
I would see it more and more
It was always by my side
Where it stands with me
I'm unsure, things have changed
But I go back to the day
Where it didn't feel the same
As I thought to myself
That I was completely over
I finally accepted
That all this time I wasn't sober
I was drunk in all my lies
Now the truth is rushing in
Handcuffs on my wrists
And I'm stuck in prison
I committed a crime
That I can't take back
If the image ever knew
I would have a heart attack
These feelings inside
Are nothing but a sin
So I bury them deep
Where it can never get in
Breaking off the locks
Is complete suicide
Cuz I know for a fact
YOU will never be mine
