You've conditioned yourself
not to care, but I'm still
standing on the corner
with rain pouring down my
back like the lies that pour
from your mouth, bitter
and so ******* obvious.

You've conditioned yourself
not to care, but I'm still
by your side, trying to hold
your hand, with a reassuring
smile and a promise that everything
will be just fine, as long as you take
the time and try.
