It's Time To Give Up


And I'm just a little bit tired of it all.

Just a little bit sick of watching you

drag yourself on the stones
and going and going and going
until the gravel is crimson 
and you're covered in sticky dirt
clinging to last night's dress
that I loaned you.

I'm fed up
with feeding you bullshit
and you not even trying it on
to see if self-satisfaction is good enough for you.

I'm done with the whole
conspiracy that we made up that night
lying in the bed
looking at the ceiling

Because now I've finally given up,
now that I decided that maybe I'm okay with 
looking in the mirror and actually 
liking what I see for once in my life.

Now that's happened,
you've stopped caring.
I don't know if you ever really did,
but now you say it's up to me,
up to me to finish the job and not to 
let you down.
Here's a let down for you:
You have your own two feet.
Use them.
Stand up,
Grow up,
and realize that letting yourself

be miserable isn't in the dumb plan.
