I broke you and I'll never forgive myself for that

I'm sorry

I wish I never looked at you

I shouldn't have spoken to you

I shouldn't have laughed at your joke that both of us knew wasn't funny at all

But I did

I did

I did

Things were never good

I was always on fire

I'm sorry I let you get burned

I was a flood

I'm sorry I let you drown

I'm sorry you had to see my like that

The pill bottle empty

half of the pills down my throat

the other half in my hand

or was it a razor in my hand?

Was that why my wrists were bleeding again?

I don't remember

I just remember not wanting to water the plants that were in the darkest parts of me

I let them die

You should have let me die too

Why did you have to make me throw up

Why did you hold me

Why were you shaking screaming crying

"Never do that again"

You held onto my bent parts and my frayed ends and my broken parts too

I thought I was finally going to be put back together again

So I stayed with you

I thought things were going to be good

But my scars still stayed my bones are shattered again again again again again I felt the bullet crush into my ribs every night when I couldn't sleep reminding me how worthless I am

The pill bottle empty

half of the pills down my throat

the other half in my hand

or was it a razor in my hand?

Was that why my wrists were bleeding again?

So you left

You left because you couldn't be the knight in shining armor

Because you couldn't put me back together again

Well I'm broken and alone

And your new girlfriend is very pretty.
