(not to be confused with my other poem crash/smash)

smash, crash: the sound i make
when i hit the ground
when you talk to me.
you've broken me down,
shattered me down to the
very smallest piece.
i fall for it, i fall for you
everytime,
i guess i am your fool.
smash, crash: you smash me
send me crashing to the ground.

smash, crash: you bring my hopes up,
the you smash them,
crash into my heart.
let's just be friends,
let's just pretend,
that i don't want to ever start
loving you, thinking of you
like i do, yeah
i already do.
smash, crash: you smash me
send me crashing to the ground.

did you ever think
the things you say
and do mattered?
do you ever think
to put together
people you shatter?

like me, like me,
you smash and crash me to the ground.

smash, crash: there's nothing left to break.
a nightmare love,
but i'm awake
to feel the pain, can't fill this empty hole
that you've burned
in my soul.
you smile and then i die, a sweet torture,
pleasant agony
on the floor.
smash, crash: you smash me,
send me crashing to the ground.

did you ever think
the things you say
and do mattered?
do you ever think
to put together
people you shatter?

like me, like me,
you smash and crash me to the ground.
so deep, so deep,
you smash and crash me so far down.
