I am a terrible person for what I know I have to do But I am only human and deserve to be happy too I am used to depression It's been a long time friend But as long as we are together it surely won't end Not because you abuse my body or my feelings But because you aren't helping the **** with which I'm dealing You may be sweet but you make me feel sour Quiet because it is easier to cower Than to pick a fight that is impossible to win Aggravation works it's way further under my skin You are supposed to have my back Clearly you do not You throw me under the bus without a second thought I wish I would have waited before rushing in headfirst It seems with bad judgement I am hopelessly cursed An impatient creature Now both are paying the price Because I am too foolish to stop and think twice I know you will be angry You have every right to be But I have faith that in the future you will see That this decision really is for the best It only gets harder the more time we invest I know deep cuts now are engraved on your soul It wasn't my intention to carve out a hole But attraction has slowly shifted to dismay "I love you" is a phrase that toward you I'll never say The way I looked at you changed after our first fight And has only grown worse since that night I held on hoping situation would improve And one day of your actions I'd actually approve But our relationship dies a little bit more Each time you do something that I deplore My eyes are finally open to who you really are Too bad to see it took getting this far This whole time I've held on wishfully thinking It will get better but problems aren't shrinking I'm ready for this to be over Yearn to be free Keeping your emotions safe is mentally draining me A grave is already dug now it is time to lay to rest The remains of our romance Suffered cardiac arrest You can yell if you want to or call me names Whatever it takes to break these heavy chains I have bottled up the truth for far too long Pretending it might work despite it feeling wrong I ignored my instinct in fear of loneliness But these gnawing doubts have gotten too large to repress Obnoxious ocurrences are a routine indication Of our incompatibility Leading to irritation It seems we are both holding the other down Not only do you not make me smile You widen my frown I am fully aware I frustrate you as well Without saying one word by your expression I can tell I don't want to be the source of your despair But the weight of commitment has become too much to bear I have wanted to cry out loud but kept my mouth closed But these silenced concerns beg to be exposed I think the moment is past overdue for you to hear The honest thoughts crowding my skull no matter how severe I apologize for hurting you Hope you believe it wasn't my plan I would stick it out awhile longer but am not sure that I can

I'm Only Human
I am a terrible person for what I know I have to do But I am only human and deserve to be happy too I am used to depression It's been a long time friend But as long as we are together it surely won't end Not because you abuse my body or my feelings But because you aren't helping the **** with which I'm dealing You may be sweet but you make me feel sour Quiet because it is easier to cower Than to pick a fight that is impossible to win Aggravation works it's way further under my skin You are supposed to have my back Clearly you do not You throw me under the bus without a second thought I wish I would have waited before rushing in headfirst It seems with bad judgement I am hopelessly cursed An impatient creature Now both are paying the price Because I am too foolish to stop and think twice I know you will be angry You have every right to be But I have faith that in the future you will see That this decision really is for the best It only gets harder the more time we invest I know deep cuts now are engraved on your soul It wasn't my intention to carve out a hole But attraction has slowly shifted to dismay "I love you" is a phrase that toward you I'll never say The way I looked at you changed after our first fight And has only grown worse since that night I held on hoping situation would improve And one day of your actions I'd actually approve But our relationship dies a little bit more Each time you do something that I deplore My eyes are finally open to who you really are Too bad to see it took getting this far This whole time I've held on wishfully thinking It will get better but problems aren't shrinking I'm ready for this to be over Yearn to be free Keeping your emotions safe is mentally draining me A grave is already dug now it is time to lay to rest The remains of our romance Suffered cardiac arrest You can yell if you want to or call me names Whatever it takes to break these heavy chains I have bottled up the truth for far too long Pretending it might work despite it feeling wrong I ignored my instinct in fear of loneliness But these gnawing doubts have gotten too large to repress Obnoxious ocurrences are a routine indication Of our incompatibility Leading to irritation It seems we are both holding the other down Not only do you not make me smile You widen my frown I am fully aware I frustrate you as well Without saying one word by your expression I can tell I don't want to be the source of your despair But the weight of commitment has become too much to bear I have wanted to cry out loud but kept my mouth closed But these silenced concerns beg to be exposed I think the moment is past overdue for you to hear The honest thoughts crowding my skull no matter how severe I apologize for hurting you Hope you believe it wasn't my plan I would stick it out awhile longer but am not sure that I can

You are fading People crowding over you I refuse to let go of the memory It's still there only vaguely A wisp of your voice your eyes your hair It's all barely there I see a beautiful blonde and green mix A voice hard to identify But it's yours for sure I need more It is a desire A mental wanting It's all I can do I need more of you

Fading
Spring sneaks by the door to the ghetto. That's okay, they can't afford the seed. Trees take too much room from the rentals. No one saw the end of ghetto weeds. Ghetto weeds once grew up sudden. They took the food of those in bloom. Ghetto weeds we're awful sorry, But we haven't got the room. Yesterday a man sold his garden Bragging how he made such a deal. Bought himself a high-rise apartment. Who can tell the fruit by the peel? Ghetto weeds once grew up sudden. They took the food of those in bloom. Ghetto weeds we're awful sorry, But we haven't got the room. What about the children of the ghetto, Do they have the playgrounds they need? Have you seen the children how they're growing? Don't they shoot up just like a **** Ghetto weeds once grew up sudden. They took the food of those in bloom. Ghetto weeds we're awful sorry, But we haven't got the room.
