It Was Me That You Let Bleed

When I am feeling let down

I want to drown

I want to fade from this ugly place



I want to feel sympathy from those I think I mean the most to



When I get told I mean nothing more than a TV show

I feel let down

I want to go



But I cannot go anywhere but here



You let me down tonight

Told me you had to lay down tonight

Then you got off the phone



I felt alone, stripped of my worth, useless and faded



I'd cry alone tonight

If only I had a pillow of which to fight (See: Yell Into Your Pillow)

Punch it till it bleeds



You could run away with me, but no- there you stay



I wish I had all the answers

To all these questions in my head

I wish I had a girl to rest my head on



I wish I had the courage to say this to your face

But then I'd hurt you

I'd feel mad, angry, sad, and displaced



Maybe I'll end this here

Kill all my thoughts

Forget myself and end it with a period.



Or maybe I wont...

Why am I such a joke?



I wish I'd simply fade away

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Yea, sometimes I hurt too...too bad this could have easily been prevented by a simple "how are you tonight?"  Maybe it is too early to know if you truly care...
