what would you do
if the world came down on me?
crushed me?
weighed me down?
almost killed me?

save me?
lies.
you looked at me,
then turned away,
a bullet straight through my heart.

what part of saving me
was gripping my throat?
what part of saving me
was pushing me down?
what part of saving me
was dunking my face into acid water

and i screamed and cried and told you to stop
but i loved you too much to yell.

i guess it's my fault
for letting you be my world
when you were the one that
crushed me
weighed me down
almost killed me.

killed me?
true.
you looked at me,
and turned away
a bullet placed in my heart.
