Why did you keep pushing
You kept pushing me away
If you didn't want to be here
Then you should've gone away
You kept teasing me with dreams
All I wanted was patience
All I needed was understanding
All I craved was compassion
Now I'm left here wondering
Where did I go wrong
I tried so hard to please you
Why didn't everything work out
So much unhappiness in my life
So much pain to work through
All I needed was someone to help
Now I've given up on life
Nowhere else to run to
No one else to try to please
My soul ran out long ago, why should I care
Why did I do this to myself
