a black fire in your heart
you'd been a liar from the start.
but, honestly I don't have
1 ounce of sympathy for you.
truly, my intention
isn't to offend..
or bring tears to
those pretty eyes..
its just that I despise
all the choices that you've made..
I guess we all have choices
we have to make.. So..
I promised myself
to never end up like you did.
but once I'd seen it with
my own eyes
to your surprise
all I had to say
was I had never been more
disappointed in you.
isn't it your role to be
somebody I could always
turn to?
I hope you weren't expecting
a pat on the shoulder.
sure, my methods of revenge
could be considered heartless..
but, what you did
will always be
colder.
I noticed that this little
sort of frenzy has begun.
I've watched the past
a million times..
given the chance to do
what never got done..
without hesitation.
Cuz surely your intention
wasn't to give up..
or break every promise
anyone could ever think of.
you know you're all I think of
these days, and those days
my name was
the only way to spell love.
but, I promised myself
to never end up like you did
but once I'd seen it with
my own eyes, to your surprise
all I had to say
was I had never been more
disgusted..
with anyone who's ever walked the earth.
you're a destructive..
and you don't deserve
either end of the people
that you've come between and hurt.
I hope that you're aware of
the future that you hold..
you'll be sad, alone, ugly, and
cold.
