No More

I wish you could see
The weight you put on me 
I cry myself to sleep each night
I cringe, I shake, I close my eyes so tight 
Slowly my heart breaks, there's no way to stop
I feel like you see me as a broken down prop
I no longer know what to do to stay sane 
No matter what I do, bad thoughts still remain
Tears are streaming down my cheeks
They leave nothing but shameful streaks
People tell me to turn my back on what I feel
But I don't know what to believe, I don't know what's real
Pills, needles, cuts, and scrapes
Numbing the pain comes in many shapes
Why do I attract people that don't really care
Maybe I need a sign to tell people to beware
Am I so blind I cannot see
How your actions are slowly killing me
I hate myself for falling for people like you 
You have no idea what you put me through 
You will no longer be the one I call, the one I will trust
My faith in you has been forever crushed 
No more will you make me feel at fault
I'm bringing this relationship to a hault 
So goodbye and to you I bid farewell 
No longer will you put me through this hell
