i am nothing
to you-
but i am something
through you
your eyes look at me
glaring at me
staring me down
but when i get inside your head
you see the world so differently
and i live my life by you
and i will die right next to you
and i cat take this pressure off you
and i say i think this is getting to you
so walk inside my body
and step so lightly
the new surroundings
will make you slip and fall
but i look at me
through your own reflection
and i say i have a lack of direction
you peirce my soul
right where the warmth might be
i take control
of what was you and is becoming me
and now we're empty
and now we're lonely
and now i think that
you know you own me
but you've paid a little price
something for nothing aint free
and now it all comes to this
i have killed myself through you
and you have killed myself
through me.
