I used to

I used to feel this way about you
but now that you illustrated to me that you aren't perfect all of that disappeared instantly
What gives you the right?
Are you perfect?

How can you feel a certain way about someone and completely change your views
To tell them that you wanted them, and now you don't
to praise them, and then put them down worse than a dog
Don't treat me this way, I refuse to take it

It's hard to take, its hard to be perfect
I can't do it anymore, and i refuse to try
I don't understand how people can be so inconsiderate of my feelings
To cast me away, without a second doubt

It hurts to hear that I don't measure up to your expectations
that your idea for me, doesn't match mine
don't judge me based on what you deem to be right
walk a mile in my shoes, and then judge away

its impossible to know how i feel
to know the certain hells i deal with on a regular basis
to understand that there are days when ever I hate myself
it really helps to know that you hate me, too

don't treat me like dirt, and then blame it on me
don't try to make me feel like i'm the bad person
you are judging me, just like everyone else has in my life
all my life..love has been achieved after passing numerous tests

well i won't take it anymore
i would rather fail all the tests and lose all your love
instead of letting you in, and then having you find another reason to leave me
i'll lose you now, cuz it's easier when i'm prepared

its easier to lose you without hearing you say..i used to care for you, but now i don't know
until you prove yourself to me
i'm sick of proving myself to every goddamn person, instead i say
i used to care what you think of me, now i don't know
