I let you in my life
Because you had a beautiful way with words.
I let you take my heart
Because you said you’d hold it firm.
I let you have it all
And you threw it on the ground
There were too many pieces,
so I left them as I found
I thought you’d make the problems go away
But you only helped me bleed.
And so it came to be
A little cut here and there
And now they’re slivers away from bone
A few pills here, a few pills there
And now the bottles, in one day - gone.
You used to seem so perfect
Until you threw away the mask
Now I wonder how
I didn’t see its crack.
You held me up so high
To only watch me fall
How could I not see the games you were playing
How could I be so dull
Kudos to you for picking such a fool
But I guess it's better I know,
And believe me,
It won't go untold.
