No Escape From Hell - Fractured Reflections (Alone in the Mirror) Lyrics

I love too hard but it was never enough
Every glance every word I fell too fast
Chasing dreams of love I knew couldn't last
She was perfect my salvation my light
But my demons whispered something's not right
I searched for flaws I tore her apart
To shield my soul and protect my heart
A perfect angel but I couldn't see
She wasn't the cure for the pain in me
Why can't I love without falling to pieces
Why does the weight of my fears never cease
You were my dream my shelter my grace
But I pushed you away I couldn't embrace
I fought for her tears burned in my eyes
She was my dream my perfect prize
We moved together her voice sang so sweet
But her song became chains I couldn't breathe
The edge of her beauty cut me so deep
I drank to forget but the wounds still seep
My anger grew my walls closed in
I destroyed us both my unforgivable sin
Why can't I love without falling to pieces
Why does the weight of my fears never cease
You were my dream my shelter my grace
But I pushed you away I couldn't embrace
I loved you more than words can say
But your darkness drove me away
You couldn't love yourself I couldn't stay
Now we're shattered pieces in the light of day
I drank the poison I fed the flame
I took your love and turned it to shame
Now you're gone and I'm left to bleed
Drowning in the void of my own greed
Why can't I love without falling to pieces
Why does the weight of my fears never cease
You were my dream my shelter my grace
But I pushed you away I couldn't embrace
I thought I found her my angel my star
But the scars inside tore us apart
Now I'm lost in a world without light
Forever haunted by the love I denied
