Whoever said life was worth living,

had to of been kidding.

Cuz tonight, i'm feeling so much pain.

Someone, please, teach me how to whisper cuz I feel

like screaming. I'm gonna take back all i've said to you,

just like you did to me. No regrets this time, maybe i'll finally learn

to breathe. First, you tell me you miss me, then, you just

ditch me. It makes me wonder, if I really mean anything to you.

I don't know why it's so hard for me to walk away.

Maybe it's cuz you still have my heart in those hands of yours.

I'm not asking for much, you're happy and in love, so, why not give it back?

I bet the only reason you're still around is cuz whenever your lover leaves for a bit,

and you're feeling so alone, you can pick up the phone and call me, cuz you know,

i'd never do anything to hurt you. Afterward, you make me believe i'm actually worth something.

But darling, honestly, lying through your teeth doesn't count as flossing.

Your title is defiantly an attention getter and that's a good thing.

Very creative.
