I Waited For You

There you were looking at me, So sure that I would never leave.
  You had that type of control and I craved for your energy.
  Don't you get it you idiot I wanted to be with you.
  Not a day went by where the constellations in the sky 
  wouldn't shine wouldn't mind that I was so deep in love
  I would cry when you were gone. I wanted this to be 
  something special. All you ever gave me was hurt and
  pleasure. Look what you've done, you've finally won
  got me contradicting how I really feel. You wish
  me bruised. A cut never sooth and now here I am 
  again waiting for. Honestly tell me how this could
  be. The skies are falling and I would still be here.
  You hurt me you did, you shut me and locked the door.
  I waited for you and you never even bothered to show up.
  How could you do this to me? When I was the one you needed? 
  How could you, I waited for you and wipe that conceited smile
  off your face before I die. You wanted me to be in love, you 
  wanted me to drink you to the last drop. You wanted me hooked
  again. I saw it in your eyes the red from the drugs you been
  taking and still I waited for. Still I stayed with you. Some
  time when I go away I will realize that you weren't in disguise.
  You weren't my perfect boy toy. You didn't need me. You could
  breath without me. I guess I was too blind to see the tears 
  you didn't cry for me. All alone sitting on a bench waiting
  for you to come out. I looked for you... I waited in the storm.
  I searched everywhere and then as I was about to give up I turned
  back around and saw you getting off the train I started to smile
  but then she rapped her around you and I fell. I waited for you.
  I ran down the road and now the story continues with my addiction
  to painful love I can't believe you did this to me. This isn't some 
  regular love story. I closed my eyes and said good night I waited 
  for you I thought as tears rolled down my eyes.
