There is no way you could love me if you knew me. It is not possible to be so self-inflicted These wounds you dig yourself But your blood is under my nails. There is no way you could love me Love this disease that is in my head Selfish, consumingly distain my mind Don’t kiss my scars You’re only opening them again Don’t tell me they will heal Because time has never been my friend. Don’t love me. Don’t destroy yourself like this. Don’t let me do this to you. Leave while there is still color in your mornings And cramping smiles in company. Leave while you can still taste food While you still have a reason to be awake. Don’t let me ruin you.
