You come to me with scars on your wrist
You tell me this will be the last night feeling like this
I just came to say goodbye
I didn't want you to see me cry, I'm fine
But I know it's a lie
[Chorus:]
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything You need me to be
Your parents say everything is your fault
But they don't know you like I know you they don't know you at all
I'm so sick of when they say
It's just a phase, you'll be o.k. you're fine
But I know it's a lie
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
Away From me
[Bridge:]
The night is so long when everything's wrong
If you give me your hand
I will help you hold on
Tonight
Tonight
(Chorus)
[Outro:]
I won't let you say goodbye
And I'll be your reason why
The last night away from me
Away from me
the lead singer of skillet dedicated this song to a girl that had contacted him over there website saying that she had a terrible family, no more friends left, she cut, and she was thinking about suicide. later, when she told him she was saying her goodbyes cuz she was going to do it, skillet ended up confronting her at her house and talked with her and made her happy and let her know their is a god out there that loves her and is the only friend she needs and to pray to him whenever she was down... i thought it was sweet, even though i am not a christian, but this song is life-changing for most people, i believe. rock on, skillet!!! ^^
"you come to me with scars on your wrist,
you tell me this will be your last night feeling like this,
i just came to say goodbye,
i didn't want you to see me cry, im fine,
but i know it's a lie,"
This verse reminds me of myself. As much as i don't want to admit it, it's true.
a girl said i reminended her of this song and when i dumped her she cut my name in her arm ive hurt alot of people and if they are reading this im sorry.
"You come to me with scars on your wrist,
You tell me this will be the last night feeling like this,
I just came to say goodbye,
I didn't want you to see me cry, I'm fine,
But I know it's a lie,"
This verse strikes me so deeply. I have never cut and have no outward scars, but I'm a very scarred and broken person. But I remember a friend reading out the lyrics to this song on a night when I was truly ready to end it all... And it kept me strong. I listen to this song and I know that I have people who care for me and tell me without outright saying it that that night was the last night I had to spend alone, crying and torturing myself over the decision...
:( my ex Cody dedicated this song for me...then I saw the lyrics now I know why...I'm sorry Cody for hurting u...if only I'm living in the perfect world and if only I know myself then I know we won't be set apart...but I have to,.I don't want you in my life and get hurt with me...I'm sorry
