bloodshot

I fell into my own trap by wanting you to fall

My biggest concern was to break you above all.

I wanted you to cry, I wanted you to feel

I wanted you to collapse, all 'cause of me.

I thought I could play without ever losing a game

I thought it would be amusing never to fail again

I felt I could be the ocean while you were the ship

And only a wild move was needed to sink.

But nothing could destroy you, you didn't just leave

You caught all the bullets and threw them back to me

Then with a satisfied move you wiped off the blood

And that moment I realized this could never be love.....
