Let Me Down

If there is no tomorrow Then there never was a today (Just another one to let me down) (The strings attached only dragged me down) (Pulled me up then cashed me out) (What did you gain? Tell me, was this just a game?) You said you'd never do that, you'd protect my soul The one I should've kept away was you all along I learned my lesson another hard way Just to live a better life but better never comes to stay Said you'd keep me happy but what about the fluctuations All of this is crazy, where the honest conversations Maybe you never wanted me to live in bliss Just making my life harder, far beyond fixed Expectations, said I make a lot of mistakes Turn to obligations, can't keep up, I don't wanna play This twisted game you got me in, too bad I'm in until the end So many people tell me it's good but they don't see what I deal with I'm badgered and berated all because I'm feeling wasted Gaslit and told that I'm better with a narcissist I call bullshit, wanna quit this game called life but I can't Pass it on to the ones who love me, I don't want that on my hands You said you'd never do that, you'd protect my soul The one I should've kept away was you all along I learned my lesson another hard way Just to live a better life but better never comes to stay Said you'd keep me happy but what about the fluctuations All of this is crazy, where the honest conversations Maybe you never wanted me to live in bliss Just making my life harder, far beyond fixed Just another one to let me down The strings attached only dragged me down Pulled me up then cashed me out What did you gain? Tell me, was this just a game? Let's rant about the rest of it, manipulation, coexist Narcissistic tendencies take over my will to live Too competitive, like the Mach six on Cosmopolis Not everything's a race, you made me waste, you're not on top of this That's just how it's been with you Run around in circles, you know it's been true Never getting anywhere with you on my hip Weighing me down like balloons tied to a brick I wanna be left to write what I felt without you prying Such a para-social quality, my life is mine You've completely drained me, got no tears left for crying Thriving to surviving, man this sucks, I ain't got any time You said you'd never do that, you'd protect my soul The one I should've kept away was you all along I learned my lesson another hard way Just to live a better life but better never comes to stay Said you'd keep me happy but what about the fluctuations All of this is crazy, where the honest conversations Maybe you never wanted me to live in bliss Just making my life harder, far beyond fixed
