Taste Of Tears

Lately I've just been breaking down and crying
During the middle of the day it'd feel like I was dying
A tear with drop from my eyes like a fleeing snake
A snake who's deceived himself and his heart aches
I dread the nights where I cannot sleep until tears are shed
Or until painful remnants of what was once said

I'm trying to hold on to nothing
And in the end, I'll just continue falling
My head hurts from the potential lies
The decisions I didn't make were unwise
We cannot do this together
And nothing lasts forever

These troubles are forever so clever
But I'm done fighting these endeavors
A foundation built on a one-way road
Is waiting to fall from the lies that erode
What would happen if they knew my shame?
Would they make their claims or would things be the same?

Why am I breaking down over something such as this?
Is it so important? Or is ignorance truly so bliss?
It's time to let in the darkness again and let it numb
Let it do its job until I finally succumb
So what are they going to say when I'm not here anymore?
Will they care? Will they realize? Will they think about before?

I'm back to tasting these tears
And it brings back all of my fears
I remember being back here
And I just wish I could disappear
I want to vanish and forget
I want to live without regret

I hope this is just a strong storm that will pass
Hopefully something like this won't last
But it isn't the storm I'm supposed to hide from
It's the aftermath that leaves me in a slump
So can you at least tell me what I should do when the bridges fall?
I'll be too broken to make any decisions, you make the call

It's too bad these tears don't taste like salt
I've never ever tasted anything quite so bitter...
