I'm Gone

Tell me you hate me
Tell me you love me
Tell me life is better without me. 

You tell me you want me 
Then tell me you don't. 
You ask me to stay, so I won't.

You say that I'm beautiful 
Then you look away
Tomorrow will be a much different day. 

I felt you in my soul 
And I gave you my heart. 
You toyed with me from the start. 

When you realize you want me
I'll already be gone. 
Afterall, you asked me to move on.
