I became everything I hated
When you told me we were over
I thought maybe it'd get better
But you never gave me closure
But I don't need you
And I don't want you
And I'm back up on my feet
You may have me broken
See me stumble
But you will never have me beat
I poured my heart into your cup
And cringed as you chugged it down
Slammed your chalice on my table
Demanded more as I watched you drown
You drained me then you left me out to dry upon this shelf
Don't get me wrong, I'm better now
But still, I could never love myself
I'm so unwell
This is my hell
I can't even can tell
How far I fell
I don't know how many times
I looked at you with tears in my eyes
As you drained my body and my soul of life
And I licked my own blood off the tip of your knife
It's true, though, for me, at the time
That I didn't want to ask why
So the only words that slipped from my lips
Were "Darling wait, give me just one more kiss.."
