what ?

swallow your pride while you tremble inside, this night's a cold one and so are the feelings you're trying to hide. a simple price to pay; a small and bittersweet decay. you were never the one you thought you were. a heart to be stolen, a promise waiting to be broken. you were the last one left in the nightmare. you were the first one that was not there.
oh how the chemicals burn, how the heart's desire churns. i'd still die in a second for you, lesson still not learned. a predicament such as this, a chance; it was a chance i did miss. an imbalance in the pavement, a crooked stone in the garden. you were never the last, you weren't even the first.
in a landfill, by the lake. my heart did tremble, my body did ache. a tear for happiness, a laugh for sorrow. this is nothing, you are nothing, we were nothing but a lie.

you don't even know me anymore.
