I found someone, different she proved to be.
Really showed me there was still kindness in humanity.
Spent half a year, making amazing memories.
From a simple birthday song, to cooking tortillas with cheese.
She went from "you're amazing" to lying to my face.
This blade you put in my back, is it in the right place?
She pushed me away from fear of being hurt herself.
But a short pain to me is all the cards I got dealt.
See, she's actually the one experiencing real loneliness.
Having short lived fun, and thats only at best.
She'll wake up one day and see the gem she threw aside.
But im walking away from toxins, with every single stride.
Im heading uphill and forming a life that I can proudly call my own.
Sad to see that ***** turn away, when I tried to throw her a bone.
