I don’t want you on my wall
Who put you there?
I don’t want you in my mind
Who let you play?
I don’t want you in my heart
Who said it was okay?
Who let it keep on beating?
Who said you could take my tears?
My heart?
My mind?
Me?
There was a wall
A wall to hide behind for safety
But you pulled so gently
And it fell in your hands
So I stood there while you took it all
Helpless to resist
Stuck your image in my head
Made the walls whisper your name
Think I’m going crazy
Made me want to change
To sing
To write
To laugh
But you stole the words
Used the tune
And muted my word
Then expected it anyway
I gave you all I have
My sleep
My tears
My heart
But that wasn’t enough
So I give you more until there’s only one thing left
You leave me with my pain
I offer you that too
And you laugh
Because I’ll never be enough
