[bodytext] => It’s a crying shame (and I’m crying …shame) How much you affected me Without ever giving me your affection. When I looked at you, all I saw was the picture that you painted The one that hid everything that you really were. Did you look at me? Did you see anything before you Besides a face with tears and scars? There was more to me than that. I was struggling to reach that level of perfection That I knew was just beyond my stretch Ignoring that my heart knew that you were laying out all your deception For me to gobble up; they were just petty problems But there was more to it than that. I was wanting you want me as I am And not as I could be; I was tired Of being changed by another and being made better The affair was all but torture and you didn’t realize That there was more to it than that. There’s nothing wrong anymore You left, and I went a separate way, I’m more than alive now, I’m living I’ve got your burdens off my back, There’s no more to it than that.
