As I sink into the cold, dark waters of depression
I just can't think of anything except your slow, torturous progression of pushing me away.
I can't stay with you like this forever,
I can't take this pattern of give and take,
Me giving all I can
you taking everything without thanks.
Pain flares in my heart and tears burn my eyes.
You knew I wasn't strong enough to take it,
I knew I wasn't strong enough to break it.
That fatal attraction that made me love you.
But now it's all I can do not to start on your set
of deep, bright red lines
set on my pale flesh
because in these numbing waters the only thing that gives me warmth now
is pain.
