I loved you...more than I had any right to.
You consumed my every thought and dream
I woke with the joy of knowing you'd bless my day with your very presence.
But in the end my love wasn't enough to keep you by my side

I loved you...even though I've always viewed love as a cancer
You were my exception, the one I placed above all.
I gave you my heart and everything that I was,
But I suppose that never really mattered to you at all.

I loved you...more than I have ever loved myself,
In my eyes you were the absolute picture of perfection
You were as flawless as the finest diamond in the world
But, you never saw me the same way I saw you.

I loved you...as stupid as that was for me to do.
I ignored every ounce of common sense that I had,
Because I believed that you were worth abandoning my logic
But the joke was on me, because you managed to prove me right

I loved you...but it wasn't enough for you was it.
You wanted more than I could give, and I gave you everything I was
You never really loved me at all, and as a consequence...
I hate you, with a burning hatred that surpasses the hatred I have for myself.
