Merciless
You Slaughtered my heart
Filling my lungs with smoke
Knowing I'm an asthmatic
You sat and watched me choke
You tried burning my house down
Wanting to see it crumble to the ground
Wanting to see me suffocate in you
Using my love and trust as your fuel
You asked me for everything
You wanted my all
So I gave you all of me
And before my heart could fall
I fell for you
Thinking you'd fallen for me too
You wanted to get to know me
Wanted me to see
That there could be an us
Instead of using "I" statements, we'd began using "We"
Using my precious time as your own
Making me believe I'd never be alone
Shattering my core, shaking me to the bone
And for what
All so you could dispose of me
Playing it off that I was too young for you
I could see you wanted to be free
Yet, you never said goodbye
Never ended our "fling"
Leaving me high and dry
You took everything
I had heard the rumors before
Saying you always went back to your ex
She was desperate for you
Always coming back for more
And you let her
Knowing I had treated you better
You went back to your unhealthy relationship
Back to the girl who made you crazy
Made you angry
She brought out the worst in you
So There was nothing I could do
I wouldn't try to convince you
I wasn't desperate and respected myself too much
So I wouldn't keep in touch
But I just want you to know
Even if you served me a low blow
You deserve each other and nothing more
The unhealthily desperate girl and the attention whore
