NEVER THERE

You talk You joke You turn around You walk away

You don't look back But maybe you should And see What you never did before

I hope one day You'll look back And see How your joke Affected me

But for now You just keep making it all Never looking back Never there afterwards

You were never there And you still aren't And somehow, I know you'll never will

You will never be there And see how you made me... How you made me deeply hate myself How you made me want to die

You will never be there And you will never care about it And unlucky me, Or maybe lucky I've learned to hide it

And I know you And I know how you act But I also know you don't care You don't care about how you kill me So I know you'll never be there 'Cause you're never there
