"I'm used to it."

I don't want to cry anymore. Someone ease the pain. Fix me. Set me straight. Get me going again. Get me back to being me. Get me to him. Get us back.

I'm tired of the hurt. I'm done with the wanting. The longing. The waiting. Get me back to being me. Get me to him. Are we back?

I don't like the distance. I don't like the thoughts. I don't like when you're away. Get me back to being me. Get me to him. Do we want to be back?

I'm suffering. I tried to save us both and we both went down. I tried to push you up but you pushed us down even further. I was helping. Get me back to being me. Get him away from me. I don't want you back.

I'll get over it. I'll be fine. Yet, you'll always be on my mind. I'll hurt, I'll cry, I'll be pushed down, but I'll get up and keep going. It goes on. It always does. I'll get back to being me. You'll always be you. I'd take you back even if I shouldn't.

I thought about you today. But that's just like any day. But I didn't cry, I didn't hurt, I didn't suffer, I didn't want, I didn't long, I didn't wait. And I don't have to anymore. I'll get to being me. You're already you. I won't get you back.

If you ask if I'm me, I'll say no because he still has that piece of me he tore away from me forever. So now I'll never be me. Yet you'll always be you. But this time you won't get me back.

I'll say I'll never do this to myself again. But I pour my heart out to someone new. They'll take advantage like they always do. Now they're the new "you".

It seems like I'll never be me. There's nothing left of me. They've taken it all and decided to leave. I beg of you, to spare me once please.

I'm never going to be me. You will be you. If you break me, hurt me, make me wait, long, suffer, cry. I guess that's alright.

I've been torn, pushed around and put down. I don't care. Do what you want. Play with my heart. I'm used to it now.
