Con, Descending

You say, all fake: "I go in peace.
You deserve more than me."
and you think this grownup amends will alleviate any shudder I feel from your cold unfaithful goodbye kiss
I've never killed anyone with my love!
but you killed it—
you managed to mangle my little heart like it's bad for your health
you'll go down for this
and it's not enough to say you're the meanest man in the world
even if you think it's enough to hold a candle to the million little pieces you create

I hope the flame burns your face
