Everyday

everyday i die
slowly but i die
and everyday i smile

you showed up
and hurt me bad
you put scars on my heart
and left me to die

i got scared of you
i tried to tell you that we were through
but you came and didn't let me talk 
you never let me talk

you came up to me one day
and looked at me 
you pulled me down
and tore off my shirt
i got scared

everyday i die 
slowly but i die
and everyday i smile
because im closer to be gone from you
