Suddenly, I wake up to today.
But oddly, the sheets are bare and so is my heart.
It's been laid out to dry in the sun.
Why so?
Didn't you take it before I let you go?

What once was is no more.
What we shared was only as thin as an apple core.
Every kiss was on fire.
Now a dump to empty liars.
Now a dump to liars like me.

The bruising on my heart refuses to go away.
It's dark.
My needs are pleading...
My tongue, so dry.
Should I hit the bottle until I say "Let me die!!"?
Or should I go find you and kiss you deep, until you cry, until you weep?
I'll lick the tears right off your face.
Quench my thirst.
Oh, I'm not sane.

What once was is no more.
What we shared was only as thin as an apple core.
Every kiss was on fire.
Now a dump to empty liars.
Now a dump to liars like me.

Lick these empty wounds alone.
I need you baby, please come home.
You were the only one I ever truly wanted.
Forever once meant something.
Till I dropped it and got a sting.
Damn reality, it made you run away from me...
Because I had to play the fool.

You trusted me like a man and a bank.
Yet I played you like a druggie and his crack.
Every word I said, I meant it all before.
The taste of you has got me high off.
Please, give me more.
I need you, not for your body, for your lips, for your beauty or your hips...
I need you for you.

Sweet and sensuous, made me fall from grace.
I'm such a hypocrite?
Oh, I'm a fool.
I'm a fool...
Why did I let you go if you were so good to me, so dark and passionate?
So raw and ripe as could be?
I couldn't give anything to you, so why?

What once was is no more.
What we shared was only as thin as an apple core.
Every kiss was on fire.
Now a dump to empty liars.
Now a dump to liars like me.

I know you'll never come on back to me.
But that's alright.
You don't need to get hurt by my careless mistakes...
