parting gift

always turning out for the worst, you were always my most consistent curse. now i hope this gets you kind of heated, or stings a little if you even read it. bringing everyone down, you left this house feeling empty, but it's better then feeling like it's burning to the ground. i can't live with you around anymore. you're blocking out the sound outside my door. and i found more. i can't remember all the times that, i almost had bruised eyes for being on your side. now i hope that someone gets to ya, and if i'm there i'll pretend i never knew ya. see you around, you were alright back when we were young, but you don't compare to anything that i've found. i can't remember all the times that, i almost had bruised eyes for being on your side. now i hope that someone gets to ya, and if i'm there i'll pretend i never knew ya. see you around, you were alright back when we were young, but you don't compare to anything that i've found. i wrote you down a letter before i went to sleep, it had all the secrets i could no longer keep, i held them in for so long i was going to break, but maybe now i can rest and you will lay awake.
