You haven't fallen apart because I exist You haven't decided your life is a complete waste because I let you look at me Nah you're not a failure, just the alternative to success You will rust Your perspective is weakened by emotion Giving me everything I want has nothing to do with me Your declaration of self-esteem screams just the opposite Laughable in my diary You enjoy being beat Stuck in clone relationships losing quality and resolution with each copy of me Teach your smile to become a habit Maybe you'll stop getting kicked out of places you don't own Here's my first lie: I'll be here when you get home Stop texting me about shopping I'd rather be cleaning the grout in the bathtub after 48 visitors than being seen with you in the shopping mall I'd rather be threading my eyebrows after a sunburn alone than with you at all But we all know how the story goes You can only hate someone Your once truly loved
