"Nothing To Me"

You broke me down, I let you make me a fool
I took down all my armor that took me years to make
I offered it all up, like a sacrificial virgin
You took it and you used it, you built yourself a fortress
And I know you’re too smart to give it away...

I knew that you were trouble, why the hell did I not see
This vision of love, shattered on the floor
I have been far too kind to you...

When I wake up tomorrow
You will be
Nothing to me
If it takes all I’ve got left
You’re gonna see how it feels to be
Nothing...

I can’t explain why part of me still wants to believe in you
I know you knew, did you get off while I stroked your ego, with my love
I offered up my soul, struck a deal with the devil that you are
You stole it and you ran away, you wear it like a medal
And you should, it was all so precious to me...

I don’t wanna satisfy you with my tears, but Lord, I can’t stop them from coming
Watch this ocean of love, fading from the world
I have been far too close to you...

When I wake up tomorrow
You will be
Nothing to me
If it takes all I’ve got left
You’re gonna see how it feels to be
Nothing...

You are so damn self-assured
I loved that about you so you turned it against me
I didn’t wanna take your life, I just wanted to know how you would feel, but now
You will no longer have me, I am no longer waiting
I hope you know that, if it’s the first and last thing you know about my heart
Let it be that it is closed off to you...

Effective tomorrow, because tonight I can’t shake the pain
The opposite of love, is indifference, but right now all I can feel is hate
I offered up all my dreams, like some kind of hopeless romantic
Did you know that I could be like that? My walls are so powerful
As you should know...they now belong to you...

You did not make me weak, I allowed you to love me
It was my fate...my fatal mistake, was this all you were meant to do?
I offered you my life, and you made your Judgement
And if I’ve misread you, I do not repent, I am not sorry and I’m not responsible
And one day I’ll lock these dreams behind a brand new door...

Your eyes said trouble, your smile said danger, so where the hell’d ya get that halo?
Take this illusion of love, send it back into the sky
I have been far too true to you...

When I wake up tomorrow
You will be
Nothing to me
If it takes all I’ve got left
You’re gonna see how it feels to be
Nothing...

Nothing to me...
Brave words, I know, I’m scared to say
These words, and I know I can’t do it today
Brave words, I know, I’m scared to say
These words: I will get over you one day...
