I Deserve More
Didn't I make you happy?
Wasn't I there for you?
Am I not right here waiting,
After the pain you put me through?
I tried hard to be like you,
I wanted so badly to make you proud,
It looks like it was all in vain,
My knees are weak, head is bowed.
Who am I going to confide in now?
Who will be there to clutch my hand?
I have never taken you for granted,
Do you get why I can't understand?
Why do bad things happen
To people who deserve good things most?
I gave you the world hidden within me,
You left me with your empty ghost.
I am sure you're doing fine by yourself
While I'm hollow, yearning for your kiss,
I may not be the perfect girl,
I know I deserve more than this.
