Emo song

This is the first original song I've written in years and only the second that has lyrics so wow o.o.
Pretty much my first foray into a genre like this as well but music helps me cope with stuff and for some reason I felt like this really needed to be written. Hopefully this is better than posting a bunch of emo tweets on twitter.
Putting this in scraps because it really is incomplete. I have a vision for the chorus but I don't have the vocal range to sing it. Vocal effects were used to help cover the fact that I have a terrible sounding voice (imho).
Apologies to the person who this is about. I swear I'm not as emo as this song makes me sound, but this turned out to be a very therapeutic exercise. ^.^
Look at me, look at you
You got everything you wanted
got everything you needed
Look at me, look at you
You took everything you wanted
took everything you needed
Can you look at me, can you look at you
is there anything you wanted
anything you needed
Nothing left of me, nothing left for you
I gave everything you wanted
Gave everything you needed
(break)
It’s the games you played
When you lied to me
Your words were all so empty
You never let me in
It’s what you told me I
Was worth to you
Yet I’ve never felt like less
And you made me feel worthless
It’s the place you touched
Tenderly,
You stole me from my solitude
You took more than I had
It’s what I felt for you
When you looked at me
When you looked at him
But not at me
