i told you i was hurting
and you said you were hurting more
so i dropped everything
to try and make you feel something

i said i was panicking
and you said i was making you anxious
so i stopped telling you my worries and fears

you said i was becoming distant
i said i couldn't be open with you
so you stopped seeing if i was alright

i said it didn't feel like love anymore
and you said that nights were too tempting to let the car go

so i poured myself into you
to try and help you
and you just kept taking

you said i made you feel better
that without me you might not live
and so i wrung myself out
trying to give you more

i was naive
to be vulnerable with you
when you knew exactly what you were doing

i said i couldn't do it anymore
you said well maybe i can't either, have you ever thought of what i feel

and i gave up
trying to help you
trying to make you happy
trying to make sure you were here

but you had never done it to begin with
