You say you care
But you're never there
You leave me alone
Then saw I can't leave home
Yet it's not your fault
That I'm falling apart
You seem so blind
To the hints I leave behind
It wasn't hard to find a way
To keep the pain at bay
I used to believe every word you said
But lies are what really filled my head
I used to thinkit was me
I wanted your approval so badly
That it nearly killed me
But now I see
It was never really about me
You wanted everything done so perfectly
That no matter what
It's never enough
One day you'll see
How you almost destroyed me
How I thought that I was wrong
When all along
I was the best I could be
And knowing that makes me happy
