Regret
Why do you incessantly
try to hurt me?
I try to keep it on the inside
but it hurts my passion, hurts my pride.
Just a child
The times I wanted to play
You just turned your head
and walked away
coming home to an empty bed
And it seems to be the only way
to make you say
The things you want to
Is to say 'I hate you!'
Just a teenager
You were off in jail
Broken down
Lies of a fairy tale
in a tattered princess gown
I don't see you again
Back in those innocent days
where you lied like you did back then
Eyes covered in a haze
Just a teenager
Yes, I'm still a kid
You took all the things that were sacred
burnt them to the ground
and laughed
while I made not one sound
