Never had I
Ever felt this hopeless
About us
As I did tonight

I discovered where
I went wrong
And it backed up
What you did

You started it
I'm sorry
That I had to say that
But it began with you

Never had I
Ever felt that hopeless
As I did when I met you
But I was intrigued

You were all lies
But I was caught up
In your flames
So novel you were

Never had I
Seen something as magnificent
As you were
Well, are

I was captivated
I was trapped
You kept hitting me
And I came back

It wasn't until tonight
Did I realize
that you were laughing
At my pain

I did what I had to
What I wanted to
At the time
It seemed alright then

I wanted to start over
I wanted a clean slate
For us
We could be a phoenix

I hid who I was
And you loved it
You loved me
I made you crazy

It was about time
You felt for me
As I did for you
So I continued

You fell hard
I did too
It wasn't until later
That we both broke

You gained wisdom of me
And you were not satisfied
With those results
Weren't satisfied with me

You wanted me
To be someone else
You toyed with me
I toyed with you

We both wanted someone else
Neither of us were them
I know that now
I don't think you do

I broke you
I made you cold
More than you ever were
Before

And you broke me
You made me hate myself
I won't repair
I will never love the same

You despise me
You loved my mask
But not the person under it
You were so disappointed

I can't get away from you
You are everywhere
You continually drown me
You don't mind

I was a fool
For loving you
You were a fool
For returning it too late

Now as I see you
I display my hate
Which is so much kinder
Than your blank face

I know we will never
Be able to repair our bridges
We will never know each other
This never happened

But what I also know
The worst part of all
Is that if you called my name
I would give all I am to you

Never had I
Realized how hopeless we were
We destroyed each other
But here you are again
