All those nights wasted, pouring the contents of my heart onto my pillow Only to do it again time after time. Throwing myself in deeper and deeper to fill something that isn’t there, until one day I can’t pull myself back out, gone is the rope to guide me I try to fix it, only to tear myself down in exchange for validation My entire being now clay, I am only as good as you want me to be Take me into your hands and mold me into your image Let me lose myself in you, maybe then you’ll love me Maybe then you’ll see me an equal The things I do to be wanted Break me down, step on me, and then sweep the remains under the rug I won’t object nor complain Your attention is worth more than I’ll ever be Tell me those three overused words and I’m utterly yours Try to replace a love that I’ll never know Try to patch me up with caulk and cement till I’m too heavy to stand Build me up then tear me down, you know I like it that way Mold me into your fragile sculpture ready to collapse without your support Smooth my edges from previous projects and add more to how you see fit Then once you’re bored, toss me away Leaving me scrambling to find a shape Replace me with another project you think is worth your time
Well it's been two months and it seems we're both trying to erase each other from our lives but you somehow manage to worm your way back into mine time after time, good luck with your new muse
