  You've lied to me

  And tried to steal my soul

  I can't try to be

  Anything

  When I can't be

  Half a man

  Or let alone

  Come close

  To being whole

  You got me contemplating

  My whole life

  And constantly hating

  All that I might

  Once have learned to love

  I'm so tired of waiting

  To be something

  You could be proud of

  My regrets have pushed me

  Past the edge

  The mistakes I've made

  Can't be undone

  The painful things you've told me

  Can never be unsaid

  And I'm left to wonder

  Were you ever the one

 

  So why you gotta do these things

  Why you gotta turn my

  World upside down

  You do all this shit to me

  You don't care

  About my misery

  And you sure as hell

  Don't ever stop

  Just knockin’

  Me around

  I'm tired of this

  I'm tired of you

  I'm tired of me

  I hate you so much it hurts me

  It makes me

  So unhappy to be

  What I am

  Whatever I was

  I can't remember

  Any of my past

  I guess because

  Of what I've become

  Were you ever the one

 

  I'd rather be loved

  Than ever be clowned

  I don't wanna

  Be this lost

  I wish my mind

  Could be found

  Am I a dog

  Like you

  Always said

  Am I so wrong

  And if I am

  Then how could you

  Be here so long

  When you want

  To be gone instead

  What would it take

  For you to go away

  I can't take you being here

  I wish that you

  Would never stay

  But I can't change

  The way that I feel

  I love you still

  But I can't trust

  A word you say

  So like I said

  Please go away!

  And stay forever gone

  With you here,

  I can't go on

  So leave me now

  And have your fun

  I don't give a fuck

  Anymore

  Do you either

  Were you the one

 

  So why you gotta do these things

  Why you gotta turn my

  World upside down

  You do all this shit to me

  You don't care

  About my misery

  And you sure as hell

  Don't ever stop

  Just knockin’

  Me around

  I'm tired of this

  I'm tired of you

  I'm tired of me

  I hate you so much it hurts me

  It makes me

  So unhappy to be

  What I am

  Whatever I was

  I can't remember

  Any of my past

  I guess because

  Of what I've become

  Were you ever the one

 

  Maybe someday

  I'll again learn to see

  And by then

  You'll be less

  Than an agonizing

  Memory

  So fuck off, bitch

  And forget I exist

  I hate you

  Just as much as I love you

  Does that make you feel a thing

  Give me back some

  Of my dignity

  But keep the damn ring

  I don't want it back

  Anymore than I want you

  You have no fucking clue

  What you've put me through

  I know none of this is sinking in

  I can't say everything I'm feeling now

  Or why I ever got with you

  Or what the fuck

  I was thinking then

  But as much joy as you've brought me

  Yeah, right

  I guess I gotta run

  Since you won't leave

  I hate you so much

  For all you've done to me

  But were you ever the one

 

  So why you gotta do these things

  Why you gotta turn my

  World upside down

  You do all this shit to me

  You don't care

  About my misery

  And you sure as hell

  Don't ever stop

  Just knockin’

  Me around

  I'm tired of this

  I'm tired of you

  I'm tired of me

  I hate you so much it hurts me

  It makes me

  So unhappy to be

  What I am

  Whatever I was

  I can't remember

  Any of my past

  I guess because

  Of what I've become

  Were you ever the one
