Point of No Return

Is it as easy as that? A momentary contact
Of eyes cross the room, incendiary contract
Signed in the gloom, you’re shaken from the impact
You’re not coming back, no you’re not coming back from this
Is it as simple as this? a fleeting little kiss
Stolen at first and returned with interest
Weak to the thirst, becoming an accomplice
You’re not coming back, no you’re not coming back from
This time you’ve crossed the point of no return
You can’t go back, the bridge is burned
Into your face, into your skin
An ugly scar displays your sins
She can’t take anymore, she’s headed for the door
Tried to pursue but you’re glued to the floor
Paid what you’re due, I think you knew the score
But it hurts when it hits, no you’re not coming back from
This time you’ve crossed the point of no return
You can’t go back, the bridge is burned
Into your face, into your skin
An ugly scar displays your sins
Once, so long ago, she called me king
Now i’m not anything
I saw the life that i saw for myself
Gather dust on the shelf
Late at night, wrapped up in feeling
Pictures dance on the ceiling
I try to chase them with a broken wing
Once, she called me king

Please
Oh help me please
I need re-
lease
From this disease
That eats my
Brain
And burns my veins
I turn a-
way
But she remains
Mocking me
Close
So very close
But can't be held
Cold
Just like a ghost
But I'm compelled
Less
Just like the
Rest
Who can't attain
Yes
I am obsessed
But can't explain
Why
She's stuck on my mind
She's stuck on my mind
Taste
A little taste
Is all it
Takes
To cut the brakes
And watch me
Slip
Into her grip
A hold so
Tight
It makes me sick
And I'm right
Back
Where I began
And though I
Lack
What she demands
I just can't
Seem
To let this be
If I just
Leave
I could be free
Believe me, I
Know
I should let her go
I can't let her go
I can't let her go!
You know she's unattainable (x12)
Why
Can't I let this die?
She's stained on my eyes
She's stuck on my mind
