because of you

i thought it would hurt but alas no pain
this lack of emotion drives me insane
i want to cry; to scream as i struggle to hold on
the more you ignore me, the more i feel numb

i feel pathetic needing you like this
you catch my eye, look away and i can feel how much i miss
our late night conversations with subtle flirty comments
but those are long forgotten by our recent performance

i thought that maybe if i held on you'd stay
but perhaps it was my fear that drove you away
you say i've changed but how, i'm not quite sure
and if i have, it's because of all that i've endured

so if you really must know why i seem to be growing distant
it's because of the turmoil you've caused and i just can't
seem to understand why my torment you'd dismiss
but because of you i've let go and fallen to abyss
