EXACTLY
It's exactly what I thought
I was right there from the start
You got nothing left to give
From the cavern of your heart
You are spiritually broke
Though not mentally insane
And your negligence a joke
And I can't survive the strain
Of the heat that never breaks
Even thunderclouds don't melt
The humidity survives
As you claim, I've never felt
Your specific brand of pain
Never did the things you did
Now you very rarely laugh
You no longer call me kid
And I guess it's 'cause I'm grown
Though the growth does come in spurts
while your silence says it all
Your indifference is what hurts
I am looking towards the end
But it never did commence
There's no need to raise a flag
Or attempt to mount defense
You don't answer when I call
But the message still comes through
While I sit and tend to me
You are thinking about you
