[bodytext] => She stands there with diamonds bleeding from her eyes While I burn crosses from the past to crucify the lies These are my scars...and I continue to wear them And these are my scars...but she continues to bare them Scratching at the walls to break inside Eager to love what once had died But I don't know how to paint this tragedy in pretty colors To erase the faces of empty ex-lovers The struggle of heart versus mind How can I find peace in the angels arms when the devil's so close behind The lines of clarity have become so thin I can no longer define what I feel within Except regret as her tears bleed down my skin How can I stand here and become what I despise Watching the love slip through the creases of my wounds as they begin to cauterize My arms reach to hold her and console her But my heart defies progression and only grows colder As the falling ashes rest like angels of salvation upon my shoulders Her fingertips begin to lay like skeleton keys upon my soul I can only pray her touch will set me free Bringing me back to that place where every kiss tastes like vulnerability As if nervous butterflies are swimming through my energy When innocence didn't need a disguise And promises weren't laced with lies When diamonds represented forever instead of weeping eyes But I can only hope that she forgives me... As I stand here...becoming everything I despise.
