Nobody: Just like me

She stood outside the door,
And waved him off in hate,
How dare he turn up drunk,
Half stoned and hours late?

After all she had told him,
He turned around and deceived,
"I love you girl, i swear"
And she so vainly believed.

Her heart is now in pieces,
Ripped apart at the seams,
So what is the point in living,
If he's stolen all her dreams?

How long can she pretend,
That her tattooed smile is real?
And won't people start to wonder,
Why those bruises just don't heal?

Her friends must surely notice,
The scars upon her skin,
What about the empty bottles,
She's broken beside the bin?

Her sheets are drenched in tears
And her pillows stained crimson red,
Still people keep on whispering,
Like she can't hear a word they've said.

She looks in the mirror,
Combing back her thinning hair,
"Why did life turn out this way,
Why did he leave me in despair?

He never deserved to suffer,
It should have been me instead,
If only I'd said something loving,
He wouldn't have ended up dead"

She wishes that just one person,
Might open their eyes and see,
That the broken and fading figure,
Is another nobody; just like me.

:'( I mucked it up at the end, but sometimes i wish i could bring him back.
