You're really gone, aren't you?

5 1 4
                                    


I never thought this would happen

But you're drifting away

Like smoke from the cigarettes

That break my heart when I think too hard


Did I do something wrong or are you changing?

I don't want to manipulate you but can't let you go now

I'm falling on the deepest floor

Don't you know I need you more?



You were everything to me before I realized

And I'm scared because you seem to forget me

So quickly like I never tried to save your life

When you were on the edge of it


Please don't make me cry

Without you I think I'll actually die

I wish you would apologize

And tell me you still need me too


Because didn't we promise to be there

When everyone else deserted us?

Did you forget that no one understands me

The way I thought you do?


I'm breaking because you're running away

What pushed you, is it the drugs?

Was it the stupid thugs who stole you from your vision?

I'm curled in the corner now


I don't know what to do

Everyone pretends I'm not here

Now you're following behind

Like a minion of my enemies

Hurt me, I dare you

No, I only wish I could repair you


I don't believe I'd ever find someone new

Not a person or a friend like you

Can't believe you've gotten this cruel

Fuck it, I'm over that lying jewel

Because you've tossed me aside for a fool
