this is a duet with kirsten ascio. youtube her, she's amazing. this song is about separating with another when the two no longer see eye to eye. I think I made the female part of the song more antagonistic than I think is fair, but hey! it's my song!
amateur music for bored people.
we are the cho diaries.

Story behind the song
this song is an imagined dialogue between two people who were seperating.
the idea is they share an unhealthy relationship... hindering each other (can't feel my face... can't hear anything) so they try something new.
Lyrics
I'm losing all I've ever known
watching as buildings I built fall
tumbling down, covering ground
you're breaking my heart
I'm falling apart
and I know that you can't see past midnight
I'm trying to wait for the sunrise
but if you don't want to
I can't help but go
you're better off without me
sleep until you wake
I'm waiting without you
can't feel my face
I'm waiting without you
can't hear anything
I'm waiting without you
can't taste anything
I'm waiting without you
but I can't wait that long
Why are you doing this to me?
reaching out to someone that's gone
tripping me up, tangling my ropes
we're hurting each other
it's too hard to try
I know that you're clinging to memories
but the one that you love has vanished
and I can't dawdle, I have to move on
you're better off without me
find someone to love
you don't understand me
I'm trying my best
you're not listening
That's all I do
I'm trying to help
by staying away?
it's too late for talking
I'll be across the sea
I know I said that I'd be
watching you as you sleep
but stalkers do the same thing
you're breaking my heart
I'm falling apart
I know I've said a lot of things
but frankly this is,
this is what I mean
we are unhealthy please back away
I promise I love you
but we have to move on
and I know that you can't see past midnight
I'm trying to wait for the sunrise
but if you don't want to
I can't help but go
you're better off without me
I'll keep telling myself
You don't see my point
What can i say? you've messed up my life
You're thinking too hard, you took this too far
You didn't give me a chance
It's not meant to be
You're better off without me.
I'm waiting without you
Damn everything
I'm waiting without you
Curse your being
I'm waiting without you
You cannot see
I'm waiting without you
and I can't wait that long
