I try everything just to make you happy

And you can’t even

Spare five minutes

Every time I try to be happy

It all falls to pieces

My fragile heart is slipping

Off the edge

And is preparing to break

Why don’t you ever

Fight for me to stay

When all I can do is fight

to keep you?

Do you even remember when you whispered

“Let’s prove them all wrong”

into my ear when I felt

like giving up?

My sanity is slipping in and out

At the thought of you not being here anymore

All you’re doing is pushing me farther and farther

Back into a black hole

That I really don’t want to be in

And you think I’m going in there willingly

Open your eyes

Can’t you see it’s tearing me apart?

Listen

Can’t you hear my screams of protest?

After all this time

I thought that you would know me

Better than this
