It Was You

I’m not alone. I don’t feel lonely. I don’t need anyone anyhow or anything else. I’m not afraid. I don’t feel angry. I don’t need helping or healing as long as I can lie to myself.

I turned to the arms of a complete stranger. I don’t need to know her birthday, family, or even her name. I’m not alarmed. I’m not in danger. I don’t need to rectify, apologize as long as I have someone to blame.

And since it was you who turned my heart around, blew out the flame, and stomped me down. It’s you who needs to find your way out of the dark. It was you who bled emotions dry, caused innocence to go awry. So it’s you who needs something to do with what’s left of my heart.

I can drink myself senseless every night. I can blow off steam with one good fight. I don’t need any resemblance of your love. I can tell you off the way it is. I don’t need more of this business. For to lose my heart once was enough.
