Hello, Do You Love Me?
Hello,
Do You Love Me?
I know the last time we spoke you made it plain
That you didn't care about me, or my pain
You shoved all the blame on me
And now it's as obvious as can be
You framed everything you said around the goal
Of hurting me, ripping me, piece by piece, until I had no soul.
Hello
Do you love me?
You used to promise me every day
That you would love me and you would stay
Watch as those promises burn
And now you say it's my turn
Well I don't want to play this game
You're driving me insane
I guess I'm just a number on the list of girls you love and left for the flame.
Hello
Do you love me?
Yes I know I fucked up, and I couldn't give you the space that you asked for.
Everytime you left I thought the last time I would see you was you walking out that door
Yes, I know, I'm insecure
You took that, built me up, then broke me, asked me to say yes sir.
You say jump, I say "How high?"
I say jump, you say "No, why?"
I was raised that if you love someone you stay
Talk it out, figure out a way
I forgave you for every broken promise
But you refused to even consider this
That's why I'm standing here, crying
Asking
Hello
Did you ever love me?
Every morning, every evening
You said it, no stuttering
How was I supposed to know there was a problem
While you're smiling, laughing, loving like there is no problem
Hours before our last fight
You made jokes about marrying me, there was no end in sight.
You took me to heights I've never seen
Picked me up off the ground, washed me till I was clean
You made me laugh like I've never laughed before
You loved me till I was sore
Told me I was so important
Told me I was so brilliant
Told me I was beautiful as a sunset
Told me how much you wanted me, and I will never forget
I guess none of it mattered anyway
It was just too easy for you to throw away
Hello
Do you love me?
Yes, I know I have flaws.
Scars, uncomparable, this weight I carry, flaws.
I get angry and I say things I don't mean
I get emotional, do things you think obscene
Flaws, and yes, you have them too.
But I never loved you despite them, I loved them because they were what made you, you.
You say I have no right to love you
That doesn't make it any less true
Let me make myself perfectly clear,
I didn't fall in love alone my dear.
I am not ashamed and I make no excuses for those feelings.
And as I'm screaming, crying, coping, and dealing
I have but one question
Hello,
Do you love me?
