You say to ask for help

That you're always there

You say life can only get better

That I just need to trust you


But when I was at my weakest and broken

In that time where were you

When everyday I only wished for death

Where were you


The dark was my friend during this time

While I wished that all my pain would end

But to scared to end the pain myself

So chose scars to my wrist to add to my horror life


You say I should have let you in

That you could have got me help

You always say how you wish you would've changed things

That it could have been different


But you're talking to a twisted mind here

That has already reimagined my life a million times

But in every version one thing always was missing

And that would be you


When I was young and so alone

Where were you

When I was rejected and ashamed

Where were you


You had a chance to be there for me

Instead you chose to leave

I needed you more than ever

Sorry if I can't believe you now


When I was lost and confused 

Where were you

When I was an outsider at every turn

Where were you


You claim to love me and want to help

But it is a promise I have heard before

Please forgive me if I can't trust you

When all I can remember is that you were never there
