Every Inch Deeper

With this person, she would hurt me, and then that would be that, and then she would come back harder, and that would happen over and over again.

Every Inch Deeper

Verse:
The oxygen slowly melts away from my body
Your sinister stares constantly causes sobbing
I wonder what it feels like to live life without fear
'Cause you've proved to me another attack is always lurking near

Pre-Chorus:
Hands glued to your knife, hands glued to your words
Thought about, running away, but that would be absurd

Chorus:
Every inch deeper your lies stab into my soul
Causes another endless stream of tears
Falling head first into a bottomless hole
Then for a second it disappears
The truths come back faker, innocent blood pours out
From the gaping wound you created
Every single day, every single hour, I can't help but doubt
You'll ever throw away your hatred
Every inch deeper your eyes stab into my heart
Body gets weaker, don't know if I can last, you won't stop ripping me apart

Verse:
Trying to sprint down the path but I'm paralyzed
You took the sound from my ears, the vision from my eyes
Why can't you just let me be? There's no need to kill
An innocent girl with her heart on her sleeve, well, I was innocent until

Pre-Chorus:
You took of the mask and made the darkness clearer
Shattered me on the floor like a fragile mirror

Chorus:
Every inch deeper your lies stab into my soul
Causes another endless stream of tears
Falling head first into a bottomless hole
Then for a second it disappears
The truths come back faker, innocent blood pours out
From the gaping wound you created
Every single day, every single hour, I can't help but doubt
You'll ever throw away your hatred
Every inch deeper your eyes stab into my heart
Body gets weaker, don't know if I can last, you won't stop ripping me apart

Bridge:
Can't sleep, can't walk
Can't feel, can't talk
You took away my peace of mind
Can't breathe, can't crawl
You took it all
I'm running out of time

Can't sleep, can't walk
Can't feel, can't talk
Baby, enough is enough
Can't breathe, can't crawl
You took it all
All I wanted was a little bit of love

Chorus:
Every inch deeper your lies stab into my soul
Causes another endless stream of tears
Falling head first into a bottomless hole
Then for a second it disappears
The truths come back faker, innocent blood pours out
From the gaping wound you created
Every single day, every single hour, I can't help but doubt
You'll ever throw away your hatred
Every inch deeper your eyes stab into my heart
Body gets weaker, don't know if I can last, you won't stop ripping me apart
