What you give is what you get


Why am i the only one trying,

why am i the only one blind from crying,

why am i the only one giving something

that doesnt seem to ever be enough. 

BUT oh, yes its always my fault when things get tough.

im always "tripping" when you mess up.

Im on your back when things that was once together

seem to just crack...in hours... mintues...

so why... not giving  or getting

no love just bursting with heartache

and blood shot tears.

so why do i try...

try to love something i know in my heart wont last

or am i pushiing something thats similar to tainted glass
