You left me alone
And then wondered why I wasn't there with you
You left me alone
And then wondered why I was pushing you away
I couldn't stand the fighting
So I just got sad
Then I stopped talking to you
Which made you even more angry
Your anger was scary
It made me feel so worthless
I felt like I couldn't say anything right
Felt I couldn't do anything to please you
It felt like everything I did wasn't good enough for you
It seemed like you thought I wasn't trying
You hated it when I wouldn't tell you things
And you couldn't understand why I didn't talk
It was because every time I tried to tell you how I felt
You wouldn't listen
You would brush it aside
Or you would just get even more angry
So in the end I felt I had to stay silent
But that ended up making things worse
Things were past the point of no return
We couldn't even have a normal conversation
You are so angry that I didn't stay with you
But I was dying inside
I thought ending it would stop me from hurting
Make things better
I was so wrong
It only made things worse
Made me want to give up on everything
Made me want to leave this earth
But we wouldn't have made it
You and me
We are too different and too far apart
In our own little worlds
We want the same things
But can't work out how to get there on the same path
You think everything is so black and white
But I promise you, there are colours everywhere
