Is it weird i thought
I'd have a chance to fix you
I guess i wanted to feel loved
Told myself i can be
But you
You took advantage of how vulnerable i was
Invested your depth into manipulating me
Had me smiling like a simpleton
With your sugar-coated words
It broke me
Realizing how gullible i could be
I found pleasure in being abused
And i never really learned how to deal with the pain
Instead
It grew on me

I just wanted to know
Was it all meaningless?
Was there any truth to how you felt about me?
Was i just a pawn in your games of deceit?
Being fed lies you had embedded in me
I guess you got what you wanted
Then again
It's my fault
I built my happiness around you
Let you be the main character
Thinking at some point
I was about to witness some sort of redemption arc
Should've known you were too one-dimensional for change

Besides
You never asked for my help
I just assumed
That behind your false promises of love
There lied an aimless heart
Searching for the exception
Waiting for a guiding light
Apt to be swayed by remorse
Turns out you were heartless
And i never really knew you
I guess i loved everything about you
Except who you were
