Tell Me What's Next

written by: Iggyhere

[TELL ME WHAT'S NEXT!]

Holding on to the last words you said
When you come back I'll tell you how it feels to be dead
Don't ask me why, but when we kiss it's like
I forget how to speak, how to ask all questions...

[Why do I have to feel this way?]

But you don't want to talk of how we can see the end
I'll teach you how to lick these wounds I cannot mend
There's nothing that makes me feel quite the way you do
This pain in my chest hurts but I can't say it's new...

[SO TELL ME WHAT'S NEXT!]

Now you see why I feel so insecure
But it's not your ignorance that I cannot endure
So while we wait for the drugs to take affect
Let's ask them how it feels to be perfect...

[Why do you always look to me this way?]

But you don't want to talk of how I failed you again
I wish I could help but I only have two hands to lend
And when I look at the thing that I've become
I can't bear to think of the things that I've done...
To you...

[SO TELL ME what's next...]

Look at what you've done to me...
I won't be your enemy...
Your love means the world to me...
Take away my everything...

Tell me what is left?

[Tell me... WHAT'S NEXT?!]
