I cannot deny it
I don't wish to lie
I wasn't strong enough
Even tho I tried
I gave my all
I swear that I did
I showed all of myself
That before I had hid
I showed my soul
Showed you the colors
I thought you had seen them
I'd denied them to others
I offered you me
A thing that I prized
I gave you knowledge
I made you wise
Expected too much
That now is clear
A human was needed
To relieve me of fear
I needed a champion
Someone who knew honor
A man who knew valor
Before I am a goner
I needed a man
Who would carry my name
Speak for my memory
Defend it from shame
I offered everything
I swear this is true
But I guess it fell short
Not enough for you.
So now I sit sifting
Through what you left behind
Wishing so deeply
That time would rewind
I wonder at times
If it all would matter
All I know for certain
You left my soul shattered.
