my mind runs wild at the thought of why u left
left me
I thought we were everything to each other
but I'm just a small part of ur unforgiving story
what I wouldn't do to be more than that
as u work on urself u leave me behind
almost like u didn't even care in the first place
but that happens
all the time
all around me
people leave
they leave the girl who has nothing left to give
I almost don't blame u
why should I
when I devote so much time into others I forget to help myself
I almost want to laugh
maybe I have to endure all this pain
to finally let myself live...
I hate being left alone
but the dark can be such a kind place to a girl who never wanted to be there in the first place
a shoulder to cry on
my own
because I will always be on my own
you leave, I stay
I wonder what damage it would take for me to finally live free
I wonder who else has to leave before I get swept away by the tides of ur absence
I wonder when that day will come
or if it ever will
