This poem explores the pain of a relationship that has ended through betrayal and lies. The speaker describes how their partner "slashed" them both physically and emotionally, leaving them confused and struggling to move on. Each verse describes a different way the speaker has been hurt, from bleeding slashes to tiredly wanting to forget their feelings. The choruses emphasize how the partner has "slashed" the speaker's dreams, fighting spirit, and true self, only bringing pain. The bridge declares the relationship over as the speaker rises above the pain and moves on.
The present report has been developed within the framework of work package 2 “Analysis on the use of game-based learning initiatives”, which aims at analysing the pedagogical potential
of games (with a special focus on social games) applied to competences development, identifying those variables that influence the successful implementation of game-based learning
initiatives, as well as gathering success examples and good practices on EU and international levels that could be used as inspirational experiences for adults training practitioners.

I
SO LITTLE TIME, I WANT TO STAY
BUT I CHOOSE TO BE ALONE TO LESSEN THE PAIN
ALL THE LIES BECAME YOUR TRUTHS
ALL THIS SHIT MADE ME CONFUSED.
II
I BLEED EVERY SLASHED YOU’VE DONE TO ME
I SAW EVERY PAIN EVEN IF I CAN’T SEE
YEAH, I’M BLIND, I KNOW I’M TOO GOOD FOR YOU
STILL, WHY CAN’T I GET OVER YOU?
CHORUS I:
WHAT GOD HAS DONE TO ME? (HOW CAN I HAVE YOU, YOU SLASHED ALL MY DREAMS)
WHAT LOVE HAS BROUGHT TO ME? (HOW CAN I KEEP YOU, YOU SLASHED ME I’M DYIN’)
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME? (HOW CAN I LOVE YOU, YOU SLASHED ME COMPLETELY)
SLASH MEANS PAIN!! (YOU SLASHED THE REAL ME)
III
HELLA CAN’T YOU FEEL MY PAIN, I’M TIRED
I DON’T WANNA HEAR YOU’RE SORRY AGAIN
I WISH ALL MY FEELINGS WERE GONE
SO I CAN LEAVE YOU ALONE AND DONE.
IV
I GOT TO TELL YOU ONE THING, ONE THING THAT’S FOR SURE
I LIED SO BAD IT’S YOU I COULDN’T FIGHT
I WILL, I’LL STAY NEVER EVER FROM THIS DAY
GOT CONFUSED IN EVERY WORD YOU SAY AND WHERE YOUR LOVE SHOULD STAY.
CHORUS II:
THE PAIN YOU’RE GIVING ME (HOW CAN I LIVE FOR YOU, YOU SLASHED ALL MY SCHEMES)
THE SHIT YOU’RE MAKIN’ ME (HOW CAN I FIGHT FOR YOU, YOU SLASHED ME, I’M HURTIN’)
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME? (HOW CAN I LOVE YOU, YOU SLASHED ME COMPLETELY)
SLASH MEANS PAIN!! (YOU SLASHED THE REAL ME)
BRIDGE:
YOU’RE GONE (WATCH ME BLEEDING)
WE’RE DONE (WATCH ME RISING)
IT’S OVER NOW…FORGET THAT MINE HERE HAS BEEN ME.
