"Show me a hero and I'll write you a tragedy."- F. Scott Fitzgerald


Everything I've been through
Is not worth what I mean to you
There is nothing left for me to do

I'm so tired of screaming out your name
On your block in the pouring rain
Feeling better with every hit of pain

Lately I've been crying
Trying to stop people from dying
But to myself I have been lying

They tell me don't break because I can't be put back together
That my emotions are only because of bad weather
That my heart is actually lighter than a feather

You were all I ever wanted
You made everyone so daunted
But now from you I am so haunted

I didn't think I would fall so hard
You played your final card
I regret my heart not having a guard

You painted the sky that bad weather beryl
For the living fraught with peril
But not over you, over me, the feral

I've lost all hope
Left just to mope
looking like a total dope

Not even over a good guy
A sicko who made me feel so shy
But I don't know why
