I fought you for my life

And my right to take it

But you wouldn't let me

And you wouldn't let me go.



I wanted to run away from this world

And all the hell I put you through

But somewhere in the midst of it all

I had lost me, and I lost you.



You held me tighter

With every blow I dealt

To your own fragile existence

Until I was lost, you felt.



I hurt you with my words

And the knives I pushed deep inside

Your heart as you tried not to let me go

To run away and hide.



Now you've found happiness

True friends, and true love

While I'm all alone in this world

Trying to find someone to shove.
