COMPASSION FATIGUE Written by Adam Kyles Your breaking soul is staring at me from my bathroom Teary eyed and dripping wet as you light another cigarette You ask what could cause the tiredness and the aches You’ve been living on the streets for three nights straight This happens when you fight this hard just to survive You can’t remember what it felt like just to feel alive Whenever you asked for a date I was your walking ATM You were fond of me but that was never enough for you I gave it up willingly yet I claim to have so many regrets You’re the idea of a trophy girlfriend turned upside down Having nothing to show from the bills I just handed to you Clearing debt by going to yet another credit card company I am the record of the family that hit and abandoned you Memoir of the neighbourhood gangs who targeted you Guy Richie movie heroine who jumped down from grace It’s always the tough guys who are his favoured heroes I’m not even Romeo but this is your last scene Juliet Time for the tragic lover to walk off this pointless stage My eyes show I’m gazing into the past not the bathroom You saved me from my self when I was like you are now I got a chance to be a hero but my friends loved me more You’re too immature to share but you grew up too soon But us both having scars is not the basis for a relationship Its my heart and you can find your own way out this time |
