Life Support, Yeah Right

* This poem is really sarcastic, by the way ...

So many times I stood by you
You say you’re dying
Well I'm about to die too
Dehydration from so much crying

You call me up, want to talk
Say you never meant to hurt me
Ask if we can go for a little walk
But I know you only play dirty

I don't wanna be sucked in like that
Do you expect me to just take it
I ain't gonna lie down flat
Give my heart for you to break it

I made my decision, which I'm sticking to
And very day I curse my bloody heart
For being so stupid in picking you
Cos you hurt me right from the start

So I know you say you can't live this way
That you need me to survive
But you said that to me the other day
And damn it, you’re still alive!
