"Goodbye Karen"
Mental illness is a strange one, I watched it eat my girl/
I knew she wasn't a sane one, but still she was my world
I fell inlove so deeply, soon that heaven became my hell/
When she'd self harm & burn her arms, I knew I couldn't help
My own mental health began to suffer, I then became depressed/
Cause no matter how I loved her, her demons wouldn't rest
I did the best that I could, when I should of walked away/
And just left her to her family, who forced her mind to decay
Feeling defeated & deflated, I now hate her for what she's done/
Cause she played me, betrayed me, & then deceived me for fun
All she did was treat me like a c*nt, & she took me for a mug/
When I thought she was the one, so I was just looking her love
& now when I look it's all f*cked, this books pages are closed/
So there is no going back, down this same battered road
Of which we walked over & over, only for this cold wind to blow/
On a warmth that once was, which is now icy & froze.
