ruin me.
Everytime I looked into your eyes,
I watched my future burn up in flames.
You knew
I couldn't live without you,
but you weren't good for me
I let every ounce of my soul
become intertwined with yours.
I knew you were going to ruin me,
from the very beginning.
I knew I was never going to be the same,
In a way, I liked it.
I wanted you to ruin me.
I thought I deserved it
Other people made me feel
worthless
I thought I was supposed to feel like this
Sometimes
I thought I couldn't take any more,
yet I couldn't get away,
you had every part of me.
You were engraved into my soul,
so I stayed.
My future was already burning to the ground anyway,
So did it ever really matter?
