Good break-up movie: Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Bad break-up movie: Garden State
I cried for a good hour after
And
You would never know it now
But I don't cry

I thought I was broken before
When I didn't cry, beacuse I didn't feel
When I bounced back
I moved on
Like nothing of consequence ever happened at all

But then you fixed me
Just to destroy me
You set my heart to beating
Just so I would feel it when you ripped it out
You restored my breath
Just to leave me gasping
You brought me to life
Just to make my life unbearable when you left

I was better off without you
And sometimes I catch myself wishing I'd never met you at all
"I have felt so ******* numb to everything I've experienced in my life... what I want, more than anything in the world, is for it to be okay with you for me to feel something again, even if it's pain." - Garden State
I used to think he was dead on.

Title credit goes to the song "Down" by Blink 182.
For my muse.
