water on the coals

we used to think you knew me
I used to think it wouldn't matter
if it burned out
as long as it burned
but I never would have chosen to end like this
wondering how close I am to the truth
why did I used to believe you were the strong one
weak so fucking weak
my "angel"
my coward my liar
you know nothing
nothing at all
whoever it was, was it worth me?
double back to when it changed
look hard
things that have nothing to do with me
cut me deepest and
you were right about one thing
guess which?
you're miserable
it's your fault it's your fault it's your fault
was it worth it..
knowing you threw away the one
who loved you more than you deserved
no matter what
was it worth it..
ask your stupid pride
we thought you knew me.
we were wrong.
