Loveless Monster

What we have isn't love. 
So why cry over "losing" you.
Where are the reasons I should 
hold on.
Nowhere.
The relationship was going 
nowhere.
My happiness was torn to shreds.
You couldn't be trusted.  

What we have isn't love.
So why lie to ourselves any longer. 
I may not know what love is.
But I know what love ain't.
Pain.
And pain was all you gave me.
You were selfish.

What we have isn't love.
What we had was never love. 
You were never the man I needed 
you to be.
You didn't try. 
You didn't try to love me. 
So.. It's over. 
You were a loveless monster.
