ILY(I'm Leaving You)
When I was little "I love you" used to be so signifcant
to me but not so much anymore now that
i've learned that people don't always mean it.
Those three little words
that mean everything to some people
are never said to me without
there being a catch.
You said you love me?
I didn't show you the real me and you left
You said you love me?
Where was the love
when you stabbed the knife through my back
and you left
You said you love me?
But how could that be true
When you yourself said no one could ever love me
And that I would never amount to anything
When you're a child
You believe those three little words
are what holds this world together
and I hope that some day I will find someone
who will show me that it's exactly what is holding everything together.
