I just wanted to let you know
That while you sit there, thinking
About those morbid things that wake
You up at three AM and leave you shaking,
My heart is breaking.
You talk about the world as if
It's trying to personally make you cry.
I can't decide if your despair is a trait
Or an affectation, but I do know that your words
Are full of so much shit. You watch the news and you mourn.
You say that people dying so soon is a waste.
I've noticed how much good you do
Sitting on the couch and thinking
So bitterly about the world. That was sarcasm, by the way.
Don't stare at me with shattered eyes.
It's about time someone took the blinders off, my friend,
And showed you the truth. I loved you
For your idealism; I loved you because you saw the pain
And the degradation, but I expected you
To do something about it. Instead, here at your prime-
Twenty-one! You're so young!- you mope about it.
I don't want to waste my life in useless whining.
Maybe, like you say, it's too late to change the world,
But I can still change me, and if I can change,
Then I know the rest of the world can follow.
I just wanted to let you know
That I don't love you anymore.
