I'm red in the face
While she screams
And when I finally stand up for myself
I'm selfish.
You never loved me, I was just nice to keep around.You dreamt of a man who once held your heart
I thought I could help you
giving you a shoulder.
When all you gave me were lies.
Everyday I'd reach my limit
But before I could say anything
You would smile , I'd forgive you.
'It must be my fault you're not okay, I'm not trying hard enough.'
I could feel myself falling.
I put so much energy into you, saving none for myself.
'I can work on myself later, for now you need help'
She never loved me like I loved her.
It no matter how small her smile would be
I'd always forget who was more important.
