soft click
and the turn of a deadbolt
you left me here to die
surely
from the day i was born
you saw what you wanted
and tried to live my life
for me
and my fawn legs buckle now and again
living in the real world
on my own for the first time
sorely
you didnt prepare me for ****
just ruined my entire perception
guess you did give me that reason to cry
its always
always pouring

soft click
and the turn of a deadbolt
you left me here to die
surely
from the day i was born
you saw what you wanted
and tried to live my life
for me
and my fawn legs buckle now and again
living in the real world
on my own for the first time
sorely
you didnt prepare me for ****
just ruined my entire perception
guess you did give me that reason to cry
its always
always pouring
through the keyhole
our eyes once met
i begged i pleaded
i prayed and wept
but if you were ever gonna love me
you would have by now
for the longest time i thought something was wrong with me
your presence wore me down
leave the sheet
leave me be
i'm just a reminder of your past
you can't stomach to see
