Benefit Of Doubt

I can feel your hands around my neck
Whispers in my ear, nails down my back
I only ever wanted something real
Something I could taste, something to feel

How could I know
I always gave you more than
Benefit of doubt
And in the end I still stay true
Not long ago, you promised
We would last and yet the flame went out
Was it me or was it you? You!

I've been carving your words in my walls
Trying to find something that makes sense of it all
I only wanted to do what was right
No matter what had to be sacrificed

How could I know
I always gave you more than
Benefit of doubt
And in the end I still stay true
Not long ago, you promised
We would last and yet the flame went out
Was it me or was it you? You!

Now my back's against the wall
And you've got the upper hand
I hope you warned them all about me
Tell them how you escaped it all
How you were stuck until the end
A victim innocent and weak

How could I know
I always gave you more than
Benefit of doubt
And in the end I still stay true
Not long ago, you promised
We would last and yet the flame went out
Was it me or was it you? You!
