World Without You

[Verse 1]
You were something I could not explain
No more pain
You were everything I'd ever need
Set me free
(You told me you would never leave me!)
But it was not enough. I needed more

[Chorus 1]
I don't want to live
In a world without you!
I don't understand
Why I'm compelled to do the things I do
I don't want to live
In a world without you!
Just give me a chance
And I promise that I'll make it right

[Verse 2]
There's a hollowness inside my heart
We're apart
Tired aches are moving through my bones
So alone
(You told me you would never leave me!)
But it's not enough. I still crave more
[Chorus 2]
I don't want to live
In a world without you!
Piercing through my skin
Crimson blossoms make me so serene
I don't want to live
In a world without you!
Pushing it inside
Feel the power coursing through my veins

[Verse 3]
Now there's nothing left for me to hide
No more pride
As you look into my lying eyes...
I see that you despise
Every motherfucking thing about me!
And my selfishness consumed us both

[Chorus 3]
I don't want to live
In a world without you!
No one really knows...
What it feels like to be left alone
I refuse to live
In a world without you!
This is how it ends
Not a whimper, but a bang!
(sound of round being chambered in a semi-automatic handgun)

(gunshot)
