IOU Lie for your own ears sake Your tongue no longer deceives me The roses you painted inside your eyes Are being overtaken by the darkness of your heart The pain and yearning From the nightmare occurring The blackness inside me You left behind is stirring This feeling so empty Ignored my instincts warning I can feel the river of hate ascending through my blood I owe you a life claimed I am content with disdain I owe you a life claimed I am defined by this pain
