You know that reason is unknown to this pained soul.
I once thought that you could heal my scars but you're the cause of my hands creating more.

Why are you doing this, when you're just as damaged as me?
You know exactly the pain you exert upon me.
You promised, you swore you would never make me feel like they did.
But here you are with a smile looking on at my tear stained heart.

The warning screams rippled off your flesh when we first locked eyes.
My feet were twitching ready to bolt at the command of my terrified mind.
Yet against all of my instincts and the broken heart that had been with me since day 1;

I let you in and I trusted you, I believed all your lies.
Then when you were done, and had stripped me of all that I had.

You turned and walked away without even looking back
