Lyrics:
Take a look at my body
Look at my hands
There's so much here that I don't understand
Your face-saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
'Cause I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable
Well, contempt loves the silence
It thrives in the dark
With fine winding tendrils that strangle the heart
They say that promises sweeten the blow
But I don't need them
No, I don't need them
I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable
I'm a slow-dying flower
In the frost-killing hour
Sweet turning sour and untouchable
I need the darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
Oh, I need this...
I need a lullaby
A kiss goodnight
Angel, sweet love of my life
Oh I need this...
I'm a slow-dying flower
Frost-killing hour
The sweet turning sour and untouchable
Do you remember the way that you touched me before?
All the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored
Your face-saving promises
Whispered liked prayers
I don't need them
I need the darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
Oh, I need this...
I need a lullaby
A kiss goodnight
Angel, sweet love of my life
Oh, I need this...
Well is it dark enough?
Can you see me?
Do you want me?
Can you reach me?
Or I'm leaving...
Better shut your mouth
And hold your breath
You kiss me now
You catch your death
Oh, I mean this...
Oh, I mean this...

WIMP
dont you know that one of the signs of a serial killer is a lack of empathy...
freaks
"Your face-saving promises
Whispered like prayers"
I think that is in reference to "Ana" (the voice inside an anorexics head)
i am allowed my own opinion
but that does not make it ok
for amy07merryn to cry
you hear me amy
oh and that name merryn is nice
what an unusual name
If you think she's a wimp, keep it to yourself! There was no need for you to type it. Calling her a wimp was just plain nasty!
who the hell do you think you are talking to
do you not know who i am?! I am princess of youtube and i rule everyone!
GOT THAT BITCH?
so you can take all your comments and stick them up someone elses arse
I was being peaceful with you at first but now i've just lost patience. Your comment actually amuses me. 'princess?' I wouldn't exactly call you a princess. XD
And who are you to call me a 'bitch?' I'm not the one calling people things just because a certain someone can't get over themselves.
so you just remember that you do know that when all this started of with me calling her a wimp i was joking but know this is getting beyond a joke so would you all just keep your noses out where it dose not concern you.
And a don't care if she's not nice. I would stick up for anyone i saw who was (or a thought) treated wrongly. All human life is worth the same.
