This Time

One more hour burns

So scared of his return

That I can't sleep tonight

In this hospital light

What you call a tragedy

Is just another day to me

For my heart beats with fear

As his footsteps draw near

The life I meant to lead

Won't slip away from me

'Cause this time is the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me and as I bleed

You just say you're sorry

You call this love?

But this time your lies

Are not enough

This time

There's nothing left of this

Your whispered words and empty threats

Rip away the seams

Of what I thought this would be

The last thread has come undone

To reveal what I've become

Another victim of

A poison love

I've been afraid for years

But that won't keep me here

'Cause this time is the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me

To just say you're sorry

You call this love?

But this time your lies

Are not enough

This time

And what remains a mystery

You can not have the best of me

So I'm taking back

All you  took from me

'Cause this time is the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me

To just say you're sorry

You call this love?

But this time your lies

Are not enough

This time
