I'm everything you wanted, but I'm not what you deserve

You watch me break
I try and hide it
but I still break
and you don't know
what to do with these
broken parts of me
that you didn't break
and can't fix

You try and find me
through the storm
but you're not the one I want
your arms, your body
too fragile
to contain this heartbreak apocalypse
so I push you away
when I should pull you close
and lose myself
in all the pleasures
your body has to offer

And you would take it
ever shattered shard of me
slicing through you
breaking you apart
as I take what I want
what I need
but don't deserve

You watch me break
I try and hide it
fuck, I try and hide it
but I've never been invisible to you

You kiss me like I'm everything
but I twist away like you're nothing

You love me
but your love can't hold me

I bottle this heartbreak apocalypse
and call it something else
pretend you don't know about
all the things that led us here

You watch me break
as I break for someone else

You deserve better than this
