I always knew that this would happen
It was only a matter of time

I can remember when I was everything
I can remember when you said
"I'm nothing without you"
Yet every day I lost you a little more
until the day came
I'm not longer your everything

You said that you promised
that no matter what
nothing could take you away from me
So where are you now
I don't see you now
I don't see you anywhere

I did what I could
I tried and I tried
I helped you with everything I could
and it doesn't mean a thing to you

"I'm nothing without you."
"I'm everything without you."
"I need you in my life."
"I don't need you--- at all."

You lied and said
"I was everything."

I wrote this after me and my ex boyfriend broke up. I feel like I'll be writing a lot more about him.
