All the lies you used to spill

Made me want to fall from a tower.

 

All the guilt you crushed me with

Made me flattened with self-hate.

 

All the love you used to give

Made me desperate for more.

 

All the laughs we shared

Made me cry even harder.

 

All the stories we made

Made me feel white.

 

All the care you gave me

Made me dependent.

 

All the children we had

Made me lonely.

 

All the tears we shared

Made me happy.

 

All of you is gone,

Making me gone.
