I never meant to hurt you,
But you thought I was perfect,
Couldn't live up to your expectations,
Couldn't be your perfect angel.
I can't care for you,
You're too in depth,
You're my opposite,
Opposites don't attract.
I hurt myself hurting you,
But I couldn't be your rock,
Couldn't be lovable,
Couldn't be your perfect angel.
I couldn't stand having you love me,
You aren't for me,
Your trying makes me ache,
I feel bad I have to hurt you.
But you depended on me,
I'm not your fortress,
Couldn't be your addiction,
Couldn't be your perfect angel.
Please don't make me your perfect angel.
