Fake Affection

I don't know why i let you play with my heart, I should've seen it from the start, who offers someone help like that, And tells you your not ugly or fat, but when you finally help, they want you more, And all you do is push them out the door, why not say you already have someone, that way there's no harm done. you asked me for my number and all, i just want to slam you agianst the wall, she can't be that much better than me, plus, with me you'd still be free, that don't matter because you've had your chance, You'll never see me smile, laugh, or even dance, you've tooken your turn and made your choice, but i still hear your voice. it haunts my every waking dream, but i lost my voice, so i can't scream, you should know that this game is wrong, and you've been playing way too long, i tried and tried and finally took your place, i laugh at the expression on you face, but my heart ends up getting carried away, don't worry because this, YOU, are the last play, i'll fight my way through the crowd, then i'll say it clear and loud. when you find that heartless, kiniving person, watch them and you will learn a lesson, that they are actually a blessing, you missed me by just a hair, but like everyone else you don't care, i waited for such a long time, and watched as you commited the same haertless crime, but did you ever think? because you let slip away, your one true love, now i just want you to know, just in case it doesn't show, if i had the coice of life or death, you'd never hear me take a breathe. because i would rathert just die, then sit and watch people get hurt from your lies, but unlike me, they'll get over you just fine, because i never let you cross that line, so my love and purity is going to the grave, becuase against you i was too strong and brave, but you'll notice my love is what you crave, you'll wish you had it every night, doesn't matter with or without the light, from you i thought i'd get protection, but all i got was fake affection.
