~~Help Me--Or Don't~~

Help me, I'm sliding.
Help me, I'm falling.
Help me, please:
I'm dying for you.

You demanded a sacrifice.
You demanded my heart.
I gave it to you--
I gave you a running start.

You left me behind.
I thought we were real--
But you never seemed
To see me in your mind.

You never seemed to care.
I traded you everything I had,
And all you gave back
Were the promises you broke.

You turned right around
And left the town.
You never pretended
That you were anything better than this.

You were twisted.
You were wrong.
You were shattered--
I thought you were strong.

You were weaker than me.
A thousand times less.
I was a thousand times more--
But I was nothing.

I am still nothing
In your eyes.
I don't feature at all
In the painting of your mind.

Help me understand
What I gave to you--
Help me believe
You were true.

I'm sorry for it all.
I'm sorry, but I'm not--
I never planned on
Making you leave me.

I thought I was more.
I thought you were different.
I guess I was wrong.
But now everything is wrong.

  1. The world is fucked up, people like you don't deserve such awful lives.

    If other people don't help you, I will.
