maybe
i was different
maybe
you really did care about me
in all the ways you said you did
maybe
it was too overwhelming
or you weren't used to it
but you can't tell me
i'm different
and then treat me like
i'm the same
you talked about me
like i was the moon
but you treated me
like just another star
like all the others
maybe you really thought
i was special
but you still lost me
by treating me
like i was nothing more
than ordinary.
-don't treat me like i'm nothing and expect me to stay.
