I can’t make you stay,
love was something lost along the way.
My home is an open grave,
a house for empty promises you’ve made.
You are the reason I ache.
The consequences for this pain are the pills that take,
all these empty bottles that I’ve drank.
It makes sense that I feel this way,
I find comfort in this mess I’ve made.
Chew me up and swallow, bleed me until I’m hollow.
Letting go is my greatest mistake,
even though you said that you needed space.
I will never be what you want, I will only block out your sun.
You were so good at convincing me that I was never meant to be happy and now my bank account is empty,
I spent it all the moment that you left me.
Take advantage of me, baby,
I know good men come around rarely.
Drain your heart where my love was buried,
we both know it was too much to carry.
Abandonment is dying trend.
You left me on my own again.
Undiagnosed in a hospital bed, dissecting every word you’ve said...
It makes sense that I feel this way,
I cling tight to every word you say.
Took your words as gospel,
I am the liar’s apostle.
Bleed me until I’m dry,
you took the life and light that was in my eyes.
I can never be what you want,
I will only block out your sun.
It’s probably my dad’s fault,
it’s probably the things he said to me when I was 17 and afraid of the thoughts in my mind and what he would say.
It’s when my god gave up on me,
preparing me for another who would leave.
You left a note where you used to sleep,
the only words read
“thanks for nothing”
