Heroine

I’ve tried to replace you
With every kind of high
Cause you were just the same girl
Here and gone again in the blink of an eye

Minutes turn to hours
And hours into days
And life ain’t been the same girl
Broken hearted misery since you went away

In the dark of night
I’m thinking of your face
When the sun is bright
I’m dreaming of a place
Where you’re still with me
You’re gone but still the memories
Play with my broken heart
Singing morbid lullabies
As my world is torn apart

Now I wait in silence
Your picture on my wall
Drowning in these tears girl
Cause you lied and never loved at all

And I still replace you
Every single night
Sinking ‘neath the waves girl
Cause I’ve died and given up the fight

In the dark of night

I’m thinking of your face

When the sun is bright

I’m dreaming of a place

Where you’re still with me

You’re gone but still the memories

Play with my broken heart

Singing morbid lullabies

As my world is torn apart
