Why do we...
Why do we make such stupid mistakes
And why do we choose to love the people we know
Could never love us back
Why do we try so hard when all we do is fail
And why do they love to watch us fall
Why do we make decisions we know will only cause us pain
And why do we let people hurt us
Why do we let people in
When the only thing they want to do is use us
For their own selfish desires
You can’t trust anyone
And if you do
You’re a fool
Nothing is permanent
They all leave eventually
The best thing to do
Is build a wall
One where they can’t hurt you
They can’t use you
They can’t make you feel worthless
The best thing to do
Is to be alone
