I Couldn't Reach

Facebook still reminds me of you sometimes
And it hurts so much I have to close my eyes
Before the tears come streaming down again
And I wonder, when will it stop?
I've had enough, I've had more than enough

And I hate all this stuff that you gave me
It's nothing without you, so take it away
With your coat and your lies
And the coward inside that you are

The coward inside that you are
Broke my heart for no reason
I guess it was easier to leave me here freezing
Than to turn up the heat
For me
When I couldn't reach

And your friends still follow me on Instagram
And occasionally they still ask me how I am
I guess they know it ain't true what you say
That I am not crazy
That I was just hurting, and you walked away

And I hate that I gave you so much of me
And you had a side that I couldn't see
While I was busy picking up all of the pieces
You broke me into

The pieces you broke me into
Over and over for no reason
I guess it was easier, knowing I'd do the cleaning
Than to keep it together
For me
When I couldn't

So go on, keep running away like you do
When shit hits the fan, know I can't count on you anyway
And honestly, not much has changed since you left
I've just got a different kind of loneliness

Oh, but you left such a mess
It was easier, I guess
To leave me here in my bed
Than to turn up the heat
For me
When I couldn't reach
