What Is There To Gain



Its funny how,
you hated me then and love me now,
it sickening when,
we're in the same situation over and over again,
i want to break this chain so badly,
but im already in love madly,
but i guess you dont feel the same way sadly.

so i pick up the peices of my heart,
that every step of the way you tear apart,
and i've beegged you for years,
but it's like you pretend not to hear,
me in pain,
you have an umbrella and i'm sitting in the rain,
from this one-sided love what is there to gain?
