Sword of Damocles

You were everything I wanted
Gone, still I always see your face
You were so weak, but I was weaker
You took everything I gave
Left me with nothing

And nothing is what I can do so
I’m finally letting go
You cut the thread that hung
The sword of Damocles
I watched the blade slice through with ease
From outside my body

I don't know why I've been left here
You keep reading me your rights
It’s your right to do whatever you want to

And nothing is what I can do so
I’m finally letting go
You cut the thread that hung
The sword of Damocles
I watched the blade slice through with ease
From outside my body

What happened to my faith in humanity?
What happened to my last trace of sanity?
What happened to you?
And what did I do? Nothing

And nothing is what I can do so
I’m finally letting go
You cut the thread that hung
The sword of Damocles
I watched the blade slice through with ease
From outside my body

You’re free of obligations
To all except yourself
I raise this glass of turpentine to your health
