You Had Me

You had me



And I was kind of hoping that I could be all you would need


But, people as empty as you will always be looking


Hoping for someone else to fulfill their dreams






I was merely a commodity


Nothing more than something you just thought you could keep


You lied and made me believe


Making me think I meant something






The truth is that you are not capable of a real relationship


You have too much self-interest


You prefer to be shallow instead


Superficial doesn’t require one to be selfless






I had something you wanted


That’s why you wanted me


And, I had something you needed


That’s why you needed me






I was nothing more than a structure that encompassed a bucket of dreams


Things you wished for yourself


Things you wished for to be real


Things you wished you could feel






You tore me down with your faked feelings


You spilled my bucket of all my dreams


You hurt my heart, and made me bleed


You showed me that nothing in this world is what it seems






I was merely a commodity


Nothing more than something you just thought you could keep


You lied and made me believe


Making me think I meant something






But, now I realize that people as selfish as you can never be happy


Always hoping


Always searching


You’ll never be free






For a while I thought I could be all that you would ever need


I was foolish to think such a thing


It’s kind of funny, but


You had me
