The least you could have done was make me hate you Give me a reason to curse at your name A reason to get angry and say things i'll regret
You couldn't have left me with anger or resentment No, what you did was worse than a thousand paper cuts Worse than wearing wet socks after getting caught in the rain And far worse than sticking a hand in an open flame
You left me with a heart full of love, desire and longing You left me with all this wanting and wishing With daydreams that can never and will never be Like a diamond hanging on a rope right in front of me On a cliff, just out of reach with a little note that says 'This is not for you, but nice attempt'
You walked away but you took nothing with you You didn't take my feelings away You left them with me and for that I wish I could hate you Hate you for leaving me with this love I have no right to feel Hate you for the golden outlines your footprints left behind Hate you for the final farewell I didn't want to hear But it's not your fault that I can't let go of these pieces of you
It's all because you were mine You were my favorite gem And our love was a blossoming garden
