"Becoming A Stranger" lyrics

"Becoming A Stranger"

So much for breathing
My cloud nine fell from grace
Loss of everything, where is my identity?
If I could only find what is left of me

So much for letting go when you have nothing left to hold
The words that slid off your tongue, my everything
Your nothing, I know that I don't mean much to you but you mean the world to me

Devotion, an undying dead
The harrowing, bleed you out of me
The "he said, she said" falsity
Leave it be, I just want to go home
So much for letting go
So much, so much
So much

I won't be dying with me, no not this time
Becoming me by undoing him
Sacrifice, the ultimate devotion
So much for saving yourself
It can never be love

So much for breathing
So much for breathing
So much

I can never be sold like the blood they call love

I am a stranger
I will not, I have not, I can never be like him
