Sorry

You appeared in my life
     when I was holding the knife
you discovered me at my worst
     and now you’re paying the price

    You got the warning first
     I said I couldn’t quench your thirst
I told you the honest truth
     but you didn’t believe in the curse

     My emotions have been drained
     my thoughts on love have changed
I don’t feel the way I used to
     I am not the same

     The nightmare is still so real
     pain is what I feel
my smile has been painted
     my heart has not healed

     Tears sting my eyes
      laughing is my disguise
I’m so sorry that you’re here
     watching me break my ties

     I’m hurting and I’m bleeding
     I’m trying and succeeding 
he crushed my heart in his hand
     but yes, I’m still breathing

     Pain has made me convert
     to not believing love works
I’m so sorry that I’m broken
     I’m so sorry that I’m hurt

     You’re amazing in every way
     you don’t deserve any pain
I’m so sorry that this hurts
     I’ll be better someday
