You gave up me way too fast 
Our parents would have never done that 
Give me time and I’ll prove you, yes 
I am better than what I showed you last

You’re sick and tired of seeing me cry 
You don’t know how to calm me down 
Please read me poems and make me laugh 
It reminds me how lucky I am
 
You wonder why I hit myself 
Trying to kill the worst of me 
To be the best for you to be the best for you

You haven’t spoken a word for days
You write it all down you say it keeps you alive
You grew a beard to hide behind 
So I cannot read your mind
I cannot read your mind I cannot read your mind

You built walls no one could climb
And bury yourself in your Victorian mind 
You said “Forget it, it’s better like that” 
Since I’ve lost all sense and meaning of life

Now where do our story end 
I’m not ready to move on, I know 
You’d be the best for me I’d be the best for you
 
You gave up on me way too fast 
Don’t be a stranger at last
Give me time and I’ll probe you, yes 
Trying to kill the worst of me 
To be the best for you to be the best for you
