I thought you loved me
baby, why did you do this to me
you tore my body in half
taken me and breaking me
damaged in and out
but I don't believe I should pity myself
I should pity you
after all
you're the one untrue
I'm not evil
but you marked me
it's time to erase this scar
and turn it into a scab
just to pick it away
let the pain fade
granted I'll never forget
I will never be the same
through the pain I'll only be stronger
after what you did, I'll now last longer
you can't even look me in the eye
you're ashamed as you try
you can no longer love
you never have and never will
evil takes a name
it takes a form
but it's not me
it's not my fault
it's yours and yours alone
worthlessness
you thought I am
I'm worthy
sorry to disappoint you
but now you're all alone
happiness is now again my home

Again I let one in
Again at the mercy set before
Knowing I set myself up for this cycle
This convergence of truth
