You

You always used to be my number one,
You were always there when I needed help,
You always shared things with me,
You always seemed like you were having fun.

You had fun with me,
You liked me,
You even tolerated me,
You spent a lot of time with me,
You haven't known me long,
Yet you treat me like I belong.

Now, you've let me die.

I'm the last one on your list,
You weren't there when I needed help,
You hated sharing with me,
You were putting on a show about having fun.

You had the worst time with me,
You never liked me,
You were disgusted by me,
You hated spending time with me,
You've regretted ever speaking to me,
Yet you still speak to me.

I lay here dying,
You stand there cursing,
Cursing my name,
Wishing I were never born,
Making me wish I were never born,
It hurts to see that once-love-now-hate look,
In your eyes,
On your face,
You keep saying you hate me,
That you wish I weren't around,
That the world is a terrible place with me,
Yet there's one thing going through my mind,
This whole time,
How I've actually felt towards you,
Was the same way you felt towards me;
Hate.

But if you're still standing next to my corpse,
Does that mean you care?
That you regret letting me die?

Please let me know,
I want to know the answer,
For that will be the answer to my life,
The answer I've been searching of,
The answer of the question,
"Is it love or hate?"
Do we share the same fate?
Are we destined to hate,
Or are we just dolls in some child's world?

As I close my eyes,
Letting my spirit leave my body,
I feel something warm, wet,
Something heavy on my chest.

I open my eyes enough to see,
The other body laying on me,
They're crying their eyes out,
Can't you see?

They actually care about me,
I thought this was hate,
I thought this was disgust,
But I guess I was wrong.

You say those three words,
Before I close my eyes,
"I love you," you say,
I repeat those words back to him.

I am now a caged bird set free,
Free from its cage,
Free to roam the world,
For that is my destiny.

Do not worry,
I'll be here,
Just call my name,
I'll be there.
