Put myself out there
On a wire.
Dangling for years
We were.
But tight ropes wear
And bring bitter fate.
The truth I only wanted to deny, and forget, and
despise
Like a pitchfork in my heart
But you never even let me turn around
So it sticks out my back for everyone to see.
Which I could never forget
Even if I tried,
Like all the regret in both our eyes.
I know now you’re long gone.
If you had only turned to me,
Instead of ran away.
Everyone but me seems to know you loved me.
They can see it on your face.
Not me, I’ve always seen resentment and all the blame.
This may have been love.
Who am I kidding.
If this wasn’t love then I don’t know what is
Cus all I’ve ever known from it is this pain
Trickling down my face,
So familiar.
We’ll go our separate ways for good,
Wish it didn’t have to be this way.
All I wanted was a friend,
But clearly that’s just too much for
Your selfish heart to bear.
Goodbye.
Thanks for nothing.
There’s nothing left to say.
And there’s nothing left to hear.
