Deadweight

Deadweight!

You never knew things would come crashing down

Will you ever find the strength to recover now?

Did you ever think that you could run away?

Now bear the weight of your shame

It hurts me just to speak your name

When I lost you again and again

No longer will I be afraid

No longer will I feel this pain

I tried to rid myself of all that was plaguing my life

But I held onto you

So many times I should have just gone with my gut

When my instincts were true

Your words drip with malice and rage

There is no reason for the way you behave

I tried so hard not to turn my back

But there's is no saving someone who just cannot be saved

And now you act like this argument has a meaning or purpose

We are no more than animals fighting over a carcass

I push you away

This has to be the end

I'm left with no choice

You've lost your closest friend

I know what you think- that I must want you dead

But I never hated you

And now I must progress

I am not just going to sit back and watch you tear apart every aspect of my life

You've stripped every ounce of sympathy from my soul

I have no more time to waste on hearing your excuses

Get it through your head; I don't give a fuck!

You're nothing but dead weight.
