I Know You

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You're a coward.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You'd give up.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You'll never put in the required effort.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You never really wanted me back.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
It wasn't longing but guilt you needed to release.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You really don't care for me at all.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
All you wanted was a way out.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You wanted to ease your self destruction with my "leave me alone" instruction.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
That the you I thought I knew was never really you at all.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You were never really going to fight for this at all.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You'll drink and wallow in your sorrow.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You'll carry on the same as before.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You will never catch me but always let me fall.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
You'll always choose the booze.

I know you,
Well enough to know,
That I don't want to know you any more.
