Someone Like Me.

I dreamt of a kiss, and I wonder how you are.
We don't really talk anymore.
I told you I love you, and you looked away.
Why would you want somebody like me..

This place is infected with memories,
Infected with you..
My veins turn black and I bleed right through.
I reached out and you turned away.
Why would you hurt somebody like me..

We laid in the streets,
While the stars crystallized the ground.
I could feel your heart beat,
And our glass walls fell down.
I asked you to stay,
But you pushed me away.
Why would you leave somebody like me..

I dreamt of the death of us,
And I woke up crying.
You said it gets even the best of us,
But I thought you were lying.
You said you were meant for better things.
I held on by a thread I tied to your finger,
In place of a ring.
But impatience wore it loose, creased it with care.
So I made it a noose, to hang in the air.
You fit it to my neck, watched as lips turned blue.
"How could anyone love somebody like you?"
