Pathetic
In every sense of the word
Bite your tongue and let it ride
Push it out, what you feel inside
You're so transparent, Cannot hide
And I don't let you know
That I see through your facade
There are cracks in the glass
Where your short-comings leak
And you dare make me feel like I'm weak
Who are you to stand there and critique?
What is your reason?
Why
Don't
You
Speak?

Carbon copy
And yes, I know
You feed off of me to flourish
But you're stealing the sunlight,
Impeding my rain
Don't make me suffer for what you cannot say
Your world is plastic, everything feign
I'm tired of you calling my name
Just to coax me near
So you can
Drag me down
The drain.
Aren't you tired of the lies?
Would you even recognize yourself if you looked
Deep inside?

I'm tired of taking the hits
All black and blue, fighting your battles
And I don't know why
You leave me alone to cry in the night
All I want is love, but you only know how to fight
And I am up too far to jump from this height
Why is everything so
Black
&
White?
My life or yours,
Right or wrong
It all seems so obscure to me
And none of the pieces seem to fit
I take the blame for the crimes you commit
I get punished, take your violent hits
I'm the one who goes through this s***
And you,
Would never even ponder the thought of
Returning
The
Favor.
It's all in your eyes
The complete disregard you constantly omit.

Pathetic
Right down to the marrow of your bone
I can't look you in the eye
I've tried
I've cried
At the end of the day I let it slide
Because that hope for us tomorrow
Kept
Me
Alive
But not now
My feelings are far beyond skin deep
I'm so exhausted from the havoc you wreak
Lying awake in the dark while you're sound asleep
Find someone else who's willing to leap
To try and change you,
It won't happen.

I'll tell you one thing before I leave you on your own
The world is a cold lonely place
When you
Face
It
Alone.
