Yet You Are The One To Break It

don't stare at me...

don't come in my direction...

you wrap around my heart and squeeze it until it pops

though i am not close to you,

you are always around me

taunting me

haunting me

but most of all hurting me

because you are everywhere

you step onto the ground before me and attempt to make me fall

                                       and you try to trip me because of a fall

                                                         to trip me on guilt

                                                                           a guilt i should not possess

there you go, you've gotten your revenge

i didnt know who you were and hurt you by accidnent

                                   but you hurt me on purpose

you've scarred me with out a single touch

and now you've carved your name into veins as proof that you were here

  its set in stone and set in blood

                                            once you finally kill me

because i know what you say

      and i know what you have said before

      and i know your name

                                       they all hurt to hear

                                       there are things that remind me of you                                                               

i never loved you and you never loved me,

                    you never had my heart, never anywhere close

               yet you are the one to break it 

anytime i hear of you, another piece falls off

when i see your name, or anything near it, my stomach turns

did you know i was hurt?

well, that doesn't matter

                               and well, you wouldn't care anyhow

                               and well, you got what you wanted

i hate to sleep

i hate it because of you

             because of you i wake up feeling sickened

             because you rear your head into my dreams

             because you can turn a perfect day into a nightmare

because of you i have to hold back my tears

because of you i realized a heart once mended has had the seams ripped

                                                                                                 ripped again

a dead soul resurrected is slowly being laid to rest again

by you singing a lullabye that could soothe only the hard of hearing

a song that weakens me

                                   because i was strong until you

i heard you were gone for good...

he told me and he's happy he is free...

then i realized  that now i was the one trapped

when i looked up and saw your name when i looked over and saw your name

                                                         and i saw you everywhere

  i never loved you and you never loved me,

                    you never had my heart, never anywhere close

               yet you are the one to break it

anytime i hear of you, another piece falls off

when i see your name, or anything near it,

my stomach turns

did you know i was hurt?

well, that doesn't matter

                               and well, you wouldn't care anyhow

                               and well, you got what you wanted
