I had to clean it up slightly... you might be able to tell where... but anyways... here it is...

-----------------------------------------

Can you figure out
The reason why I am this way
Can't we talk about
Why can't my hate just go away
Can't you figure out
Why I loathe the thoughts of you
And what you're all about
You didn't know my love was true

I guess that I was wrong
to waste my time on you
I hope that you are glad
this friggin game is through
Why were you so cruel
to even let me near?
Driving me insane
with each passing year

Lying here alone
Wasting precious tears on you
Leave me here alone
Don't you even have a clue
You cut me to the bone
Why does the pain have to be
Now I can't atone
My sins will not set me free

so I guess that I was wrong
to waste my time on you
I hope that you are glad
this friggin game is through
You taught me how to live
you taught me how to cry
Now you don't even care
if I live or die

It's no surprise to me
The reasons that I am this way
I am my enemy
warring each and every day
my voices telling me
why you bother to try
I never could see
that you would ever lie

but I guess that I was wrong
to waste my time on you
I hope that you are glad
this friggin game is through
Why were you so cruel
to even let me near?
Driving me insane
with each passing year
You taught me how to live
you taught me how to cry
Now you don't even care
if I live or die

Fear destroys the mind, depression destroys the soul... only love and compassion may save you from death.

Sad when one bails out of a relationship not valuing it as much as we do and as much as we believed they did...James
