I'm not going to try anymore

Because I'll never be what you want

The sickly sweet image of perfection

You always wished I would become

Pushing me under when I needed your hand

Drowning me in hatred when I struggled to the surface

Didn't want me to destroy your flawless reputation

You chose to drve me to suicide instead

Break your promises, spread your gossip

My self worth never meant a thing to you

Disguised as a loyal friend, you led me on

And here I am, standing in hell's doorway

You're twisting the handle, opening the path

I hear the ehoes of my past you revealed

"She's a cutter, she's depressed, attention whore"

I tried to deny it, yet you did it well

Suffocated by my own mistakes

I'm sorry it didn't work out

I couldn't be flawless like you

And now my failure as a human

Can only be attributed to you
