Why?

Why must I be so nieve?
Why can't I see you for what you are?
Why is the truth so easily skewed?
Why did I let my emotions get tangled up in this?
Why do I continue to let you hurt me?
Why don't you just leave me alone?
Why do I fall for your loving act?
Why is it never you that gets hurt?
Why is it you don't seem to care?
Why do you always come and go from my life?
Why do I always allow you to come back?
Why haven't I learned to be stronger than that?
Why hasn't my heart listened to my brain?
Why do I keep letting you fool me?
Why do I always cry when you decide to stop caring again?
Why does this pain still surprise me?
Why haven't I told you how I truely feel?
Why don't you just screw off for good this time?
