When are you going to leave me?
Don’t try to tell me you won’t
Even if you don’t know it yet
Don’t waste your breath on promises
Because I know you will

Everyone says they won’t
But they always do
They make promises
They convince me I’m worth something
And then they spit in my face and walk away

They leave me without a second thought
They reason that I was never worth it
Worth anything
And they tell me I’m annoying

They say it to my face when they couldn’t
Because they were playing with my feelings
They say I’m ugly
Annoying, mean, and horrible

They played their longest game of pretend
Only I didn’t know it was a game
It was only one for them

And with them goes my hope and will
And I have to ask myself
I really need to ask myself
When will I be worth something?
Will I ever be something?
