You don't

You don't argue with me anymore
Not like you used to
When I'd condemn myself to a life of loneliness
With prophetic words of despair
You'd show me the error of my ways
You'd show me a path of sun-filled hope
Not anymore

I'd like to think that you just grew weary
And that you're building your strength
Ready to fight my tirades against myself
But you're not
I know that deep down you no longer care for me
The way you used to
That now I'm no more than a burden to you

Every once in awhile an annoying bubble of hope will surface
I'll test the system again
Once again saying I'll have a future alone
Eaten by cats when I finally return my soul to heaven
You don't say otherwise

I like to think that maybe you still love me
But you don't
