Description
It's like a power ballad but without the cheese. A sonically dynamic tale of heartbreak.
Lyrics
Slipping Away I wasted all my time Trying to put your nonsense Into rhyme You fed my soul with lies And I ate so damn much I nearly died I thought you said Everything would be alright I thought you said Everything would be just fine I thought you wanted All the love I gave to you But now I know that this time We are really through So now I'm slipping away From the trap that you had Caught me in You buried us so long before I had the option to say when You took advantage of me Somehow I always knew you would Although it hurts to say this now Oh I would topple if I could I thought you said Everything would be okay I thought you said Everything would be just perfect I bet you had so much fun Fucking with me Cause now I know that We were never meant to be So now I'm slipping away From the trap that you had Caught me in You buried us so long before I had the option to say when So now I'm slipping away From your claws so deep Within my skin This time I'm settling the score I may never have this chance again And through it all You were my savior And through it all I would have never made you But all of this Will come full circle in the end Written by Monte Peck © 2010 Equalellow Songs (ASCAP)
