Because of You

By Tiffany

Because of you I can't look in the mirror,
Because of you I can't see myself,
I can't look myself in the eyes,
and not ask "why".

Why me?
Why did you do this to me?
I didn't do anything to you,
And yet its me you blame.

Because of you,
I don't want to live.
I cut my skin,
I write goodbye.

The blood leaving my body doesn't end the guilt,
The depression inside me has only built,
Going without meals only adds more pain,
And looking at the scars adds to the blame.

Because of you,
I don't know what to do,
I can't laugh,
and I can't smile.

You had to force things,
Force yourself on me,
And when they didn't go your way,
You left me with the blame.

I can't eat.
I can't sleep.
I can't live,
yet I can't die.

I cut myself and watch the blood flow accross my skin,
I'm tired of this and I can't win.

Because of you,
I lost myself,
I'm stuck in a living hell,
While you're on the outside laughing.

Because of you,
I can't breathe,
I cry instead of sleep,
I write goodbye instead of eat,
I cut my skin instead of smiling,
I think of death when I should be laughing.

All because of what you did.

All because of you.
