You have left me raw
My skin is gone
Flesh and bone exposed
I bet you're thinking
You didn’t mean to
I bet you didn't know
But even now as it is
As I lay with the sting
Of nerves made free
I know I saw your eyes
And they were clear as day
When you chipped away
At the last bits of me
I tried to be everything
I couldn't be, I tried to be
Everything to everyone
And I'm so sore
From all those things
You asked of me
I'm so sore of all
Those things you never
Thought to give to me
