All these scars
All of the pain
All the days I couldn't breathe
Am I meant to forget it all
Move on?All the lies
That I believed
And the doubt, that I got killed
The thousand fears I hid
All for you, not for meWhat of the times I said no
And you said yes
Remember how it went
Maybe I was naive
Did you ever know?You knew the truth
I was a lie
One you couldn't believe
But still kept hostage
All of these years, why?All of your secrets, I still keep
Do you still keep mine?
Did you tell all your friends
Or have you forgotten them
Just like you forgot meI had Faith in you
Not in us, never
We were always a lost cause
I was a losing game
But I still let you play meHow does it feel to win?
I hope you get a medal
For how much of a snake you are
I always thought you'd change, rearrange
Maybe love couldn't do that
Love from meDoes she make you laugh?
You always said I was boring
Is she as thick as you want?
You always shamed me for being thin
Is she pretty?
You used to call me uglyMaybe she's smart
I remember when you called me dumb
Or maybe she doesn't cry so much
You used to hate that I was too emotional
You told me to grow upShe's probably everything I'm not
Everything I'll never be
But will she stay
As long as I did
Do you ever think of me?All of the sacrifices
Did it mean nothing to you?
Didn't I deserve an explanation
You kept me in the dark
So only you could see the lightI wish that I could take it back
Tell you I didn't feel the same
You told me not to be scared
Promised to never hurt me
You kept it though, you killed me insteadAll I ever did
Everything I ever said
Every step I took
And every tear that dropped
Was all for you
What did you ever do for me?Okayyy this is old and I'm so over it now, but I found it in one of my books and I think it's beautiful.😂❤️
