you shot me down
with your negligence
unspoken words
hang in the air
and disappear with your cowardice
how could you shoot me down
when all i wanted was the best
for your heart
i don’t deserve your silence, babe
i did everything i could
to please you, babe
i know being a people pleaser
destroys your soul
but babe i was willing
to destroy mines for yours
you did me wrong
because you’re used to
people doing you wrong
you can’t accept the good things
that come with love
so you would rather run and hide
until the demons disappear
from your bedside
don’t come running back
for my company
i know you won’t come back
but if you ever do
i won’t accept your apology
