Just because I'm not like you doesn't make me wrong, it makes me different.
And you give, and they take, and it's love that you want, but not love that you make.


When push came to shove,
I just wasn't enough.
This was far from love,
This was only a bluff.

Well I'm still here,
You can't wipe me from this place.
You can wipe me from your memory,
But you're stuck seeing my face.

Everyday for however long,
& Ill make sure they know you did me wrong.
Because you faked it all, everything,
You made me fall, for nothing.

I don't think you understand,
Well please let me explain.
Falling for you was falling in quicksand,
You can't imagine the pain.

Have you ever felt worthless?
Like you'll never match up.
Wandering this place, aimless,
Thinking of this mess to cleanup.

Well I'm the mess but you don't see,
I only tried to impress but you don't agree.

In your eyes I am incapable,
Of being what you want,
& what you need.
So now this thing comes full circle,
And I'm left feeling emptied.

I guess if I wanted,
I could look back and regret.
I guess I could be haunted,
And never forget.

Then I'd ask if you are worth it,
And I'd know that you are not.
But you can't just forget it,
It's not just a snapshot.

It is an entire movie,
Played out for all to see.
They said you'd treat me awfully,
And I did not agree.

My mistake,
I should have known.
That you were fake,
& you'd leave me alone.

Even though you said you wouldn't,
I always thought that you just couldn't.
But you proved me wrong, once again,
Didn't take you long to destroy my trust in men.

You are so easy to figure out,
When I've got all the puzzle pieces.
You hate to hear them shout,
Because they're acting as judges.

But you need to hear their words,
You need to know who you are.
All those truths need to be heard,
Because this time you've gone too far.

I wouldn't wish this kind of feeling,
Upon my worst enemy.
My mind is still reeling,
From everything you said to me.

So now tomorrow marks a new day,
In a place I'd rather not be.
You painted all my walls gray,
When you said you never cared about me.
