Why?

Why do I continue to hold onto nothing?

When love must not want me,

Why do you insist on playing with my heart?

Why do I continue to want you...?

When it’s obvious you don't want me...then

Why don't you just be honest, instead of lying to us both?

Why do I feel so dam alone...?

When you are not around...

Whenever you are here with me,

I still feel so freaking alone,

Why do you even come around if you don't want me so?

Why do I continue to hold onto you?

Why is my heart barricading all the others from reaching in?

When you, for sure are scared for life of hurtful love...

Then take my heart and I will show you true love...
