what is love?
it's just a deceiving word that just leads to heartbreak
you tell me you love me
and when I'm not so sure you reassure me
but only to leave me in the end
all the empty promises you gave
all the lies you said to my face
all for what
love?
but is love really love,
when nobody uses it correctly?

you ruin me
you verbally beat me with your words
but i embrace you in my arms
i give you all my love
while you push me away
you insult me
but i don't stop
in fact, i give you my heart
i give you my trust
but i get nothing in return
nothing besides hurtful words
nothing besides lies
nothing besides your anger
but i give you nothing but love
nothing but honesty
nothing but positivity
and all you do is hurt me
you break me
you ruin me
so i run
i run as far as i can
i run to get away from your lies
i run to get away from your abuse
because you don't deserve me
you don't deserve any part of me
you don't get my embrace
you don't get my positivity
you don't get my trust
you don't get my honesty
you don't get my heart
you don't get my love
you don't get any of it anymore
because you don't deserve me
and i know that now
so don't come running back to me
because i've already run as far away from you as i can
and i can't run anymore.

my heart burns as your name glows across my screen
the memories all come flowing back to me
the heartbreak you brought me
the internal pain that now stays within me
the gut wrenching regret that won't leave my mind
i see your name and can't help but feel all those feelings again
all the different emotions come flooding through my unhealed wounds
the wounds that you gave me
the wounds that had almost healed
the wounds that you just reopened
from those two words that appear across my screen
those two words that never fail to bring back a world of pain
those two words that just so happen to be your name.
