A Mind of Its Own

Never enough, you bleed with me
Can't you see? I'm just a memory

Thought I'd let you go
Why can't you leave me be?
Nobody heard my plea
So you became the source of my enmity
Now I just can't let go
How we became so
Desperate, desolate and hollow
The way it could've been
Guess we'll never know

Maybe if we tear them apart
Smash them then sift through the pieces
We will finally find one that would fit us
When did hope devolve into a shot in the dark?

Clinging to me, a ghost of my past
As if it has a mind of its own
Ever-present, bleed with me
Can't you see? I'm not afraid of a memory

I eradicate
Each trace and state
Every little piece of mind
That seeks to redefine me
I will annihilate
Then when none remain
It will be their turn
To face me unchained
What will be left to show
That we'll never know

Maybe if we crush them all
Smash them then sift through the pieces
We will finally find one that would fix us
When did hope decay into a shot in the dark?

Clinging to me, a ghost of my past
As if it has a mind of its own
Ever-present, bleed with me
Can't you see? I'm not afraid of a memory
