You find yourself so bored out of your mind,
that it becomes amusing to drive others out of theirs
Good girls will leave their heart at your doorstep
and days later, you'll have the pieces scattered around your bedroom
Your old drug of choice just doesn't seem to cut it any more,
but manipulation has never felt more addicting.
Make them say your name, make them tell you they love you
Keep that memory alive when you stop returning their calls
and when your words have cut deep enough, don't flinch when you see your mother cry for the first time
and don't think twice when you know that you're the reason why
Where did your feelings go?
You see how red your anger can be,
but do you remember what shade remorse is?
You prey on the people that love you most and run them dry
You feed off of their hope that maybe you'll change.
But you don't entertain the thought of love anymore
and you'll never see that people are not just another notch in your belt.
Heard something that provoked this thought.
What do you think?
