Why would you leave me?
We're we not ment to be?
It gets hard to breath...
But why would you leave me?
Did I love you to much?
I still break at your touch...
Was I not good enough?
The shadow of your hand lingers on my skin,
While tire tracks engrave upon the dirt.
The day you left was the day I changed,
The memory of you will never be the same.
I wish you could see the debt you owe,
This is the end,
our forever love.
I was so wrong.
You were silent,
I was hopeful.
You left me,
On a US map
One puts a pin on a territory to prove they’ve been there,

1. You got out of jail on Sunday.
The sudden realization that you weren't just a bad dream
Cracks my eyes open, makes them bleed
I was Alice falling through the rabbit hole
I told you I loved you.
I told you so often I began to believe it.
I lied to you every day we spent together.
I told you that I loved you.
I told you so often that I swore it was the truth.
You’re so cold it makes me want to cry
Saying I’m okay is slightly more than a little white lie
I’m so pissed off, yet so sad inside
I’m locked in a battle I just can’t win
I wish you’d try to be civil now and then
