Step Away

One more word can cause a war

Step away, stay far

Just turn your back like what you always do

Besides, this is what I want too

You taught me what pain feels like

You taught me what love felt like

But you haven’t taught me the reason why

You went away, left me alone

You don’t care, no, not anymore.

That’s what you do:

You make me smile

You can make me cry

Then you break my heart

Then you pull apart.

You push your burden into my arms

Then they grow weak

I drop them all onto my feet

You then say sorry, for what?

Whatever you say, it’s got to be a lie,

You say ‘sorry’ because you regret ever leaving my side

Or is it because you were caught?
