Why Did You Make Me Care?

Why did you make me care?
Make me want you there
Leave my arms both bare
And break my defenses

How did you make me feel
Like I couldn't feel
What I thought was real
Was one step from senseless?

Time falls asleep
While I'm trying
To keep from crying
Over all the lies
That you told
While I was just left behind
To drink down the dregs
Of you

Why did you make me need
What could only bleed
Just a heart you feed
With some pretty poison?

Where should I keep these tears
In a thousand years
Will they disappear
Or be an ocean?

Time falls asleep
While I'm trying
To keep from crying
Over all the lies
That you told
While I could have almost died
And drained down the dregs
Of you
