We were just kids when this started
The chaos of adolescence
But somewhere along the line
You began to despise my presence
And I loved you, I still do
I always will
Be you friend or foe
I will die on your hill
But please don't be the one
Who ends my life
Don't be the one
To take the knife

I sold my soul
Just for your smile
I sold my being,
I even ran the extra mile
It would've hurt less
If you had at least watched me
But your eyes were somewhere else
It's only her you ever see

I killed myself
Just to be perfect for you
But what did you do?
Just helped drive the knife right through

I don't hate you
I never could
But I don't love you either
I wish we lived in a world
Of black and white
But my feelings for you are gray
Never black, never white
How could it not be?
Nothing is ever simple
When it comes to you

There was a time
When we didn't speak
When I got fed up with your words
And my anger had reached a peak
It was the best time of my life
But little did I know
You'd come crawling back
And I'd go back to feeling woe
Why did I take you back?
Why didn't I just refuse?
I thought you really changed
But you just didn't want to lose
Your adoring fan
Who, to you, was naught but a simple ruse

I know your presence
Is only temporary
I know a decade from now
I won't even remember your name
But I also know
I won't forget
Those words you said
I won't forget
Those tears I shed
I won't remember you
But I'll remember what you did

When you bought me at the store
I was fresh and new
Your favorite little toy
Your darling little boo
A year went by
My colors grew plain
Your smile began to falter
Your love started to wane
And as time skirted by
I began to fall apart
All loose threads and broken parts
No longer was I an art
You decide to give me back
To that store you first saw me
They shake their heads and tell you
"No returns, we're sorry."
So you take a look around
And you see a new toy
She's perfect and new
I'm just a stupid boy
You bring her home and tell her
Those words you told me long ago
I'm put back on the shelf
At the end of the row

When did hate and love become the same?
Maybe it's when my affection
Began to be a game
3 points for smiles
10 points for a tear
50 if you can whisper an insult
Loud enough for me to hear
As for the prizes, well
Winners get bragging rights
Losers get to cry
Isn't that how I spend most of my nights?

This war we wage
You win every day
My losses are your victories
This hell is just your May
I wave my white flag
Begging for a truce
But still you don't relent
How many more times must I lose?

In a play called my life
You are the star
The star actress
But what role do you play?
Villain? Lover? Friend?
Whatever you are
I beg of you
To never leave
After all
The show must go on

My soul was once pure
As white as can be
It never turned dark
Until corrupted it was by she
Take me back to those days
When the teachers called me a delight
When everyone would look at me and go,
"Oh, what a sight!"
Oh, please, I'd give anything
Anything at all, really
Just for a sense of normalcy
Away from these feelings, so touchy-feely
(last line was inspired by @jamespotterbbg's marvelous rhyme ideas)
