Shell


You wear your pain like a beautiful, colourful shell

There were so many things you chose to keep

From me and so little you could tell

Taking the emotional rain check

Once and then again

I didn't realise yet that I didn't

Need you as a friend

And now I see too late

There's nothing in your heart to give

You just wanted to fuck and eat

So I'll live and let live
