I used to follow you around,
I was your shadow on sunny days, your stray moonbeam at night,
You never seemed to notice me among brighter lights,
You used to ignore me and pretended not to care.

I used to think you were beautiful beyond compare,
And I couldn't help myself, I would just stare and stare.
You used to drive away from me, and leave me cold,
Standing there alone on your corner on rainy days.

I used to go through your trash, in order to treasure you,
I took it home in order to feel closer to you.
You thought I was dirty and poor and you pitied me,
You gave me coins one day and told me now I could catch a bus away.

I never spent that money, I threw it away with you,
I put it in the river along with your body, It looks prettier underwater,
You talked and begged me though, when I took you in your car,
You wanted to drive very fast but I kept making you take your time.

That's all i really wanted from you really, was time, was talk
Was for you to acknowledge that I existed,
You never did that did you? Never opened up to me..
Well at least you didn't before I opened you up myself.
