I never had a chance
to experience true hopelessness
Until you came along
and took everything
away
My last bit of innocence
Extracted with your fingertips
A new kind of pain
injected with your
personal syringe
And that day you said
you loved me
I discovered true dishonesty
And after one last row
one last slice
I turned away from you
so I could
heal
and by leaving you behind
I lost my greatest fear
and took everything
I used to love
and burned it
so I could start
anew
