I don't need you
But I make myself believe I do.

I don't want you
But I force myself to think I do.

****, I don't even like you
But I like to pretend I do.

I don't gain anything,
I don't learn anything,
I don't enjoy it for a second.

I'm losing myself
too busy forcing myself to find you.

I constantly try to be what you want.  
Trying to make myself good enough for you.

But that's the issue,
I can't be good enough for you
no matter how hard I try.

You don't want me, and I don't want you
It's simple
There's nothing else we can do.

It's almost funny though,
we constantly agree to disagree,
But our compromise is a fight.

We can't just walk away
But we hate being together.

The bond we built
can't be broken.
And if it did, we wouldn't survive.

See isn't funny?
We "don't like each other",
Right?
