Just Want You to Know

I tried to be good

But I seem to have failed

Every time I tried

I was blackmailed

I tried to be good

But every time I tried

I felt so shamed

I could have cried

I don’t know if you knew

How you’ve put me in pain

But your angry, harsh words

Drove me insane

I needed to be loved

To know that you care

That I’m worth something to you-

But life’s so unfair

See- Now it’s too late

I don’t care now, to try

But somehow I still do

-For me.
