They Say It Only Gets Better From Here

You said you you didn't want me to leave you,
But why did you run away so fast?
I thought you said this would last.

A cover-up.
A charade.
And I'm not one to play games.

You said you wouldn't hurt me,
Like you did the rest.
The pain you give me,
Only second best.

A stinging.
A bruise.
And I'm the only one to lose.

You know its funny when I think about it.
I thought things were going so well.
I knew deep inside you had something to tell.

An infection.
A burning.
I knew all about your yearning.

For another girl.
One from the past.
I had known it wouldn't last.

A blister.
A scar.
I can't believe it went this far.

I knew better than to care.
To put my heart out in the open.
In your grasp.

A cist.
A scratch.
My love for you was obviously no match.

To your love for her.
I just wish you knew.
Knew how true, my loves for you.

A break.
A contusion.
Ive never felt such confusion.

I'll just grit my teeth at the site of you.
Close my eyes and block out images.
Cause it hurts to see you happy.

A disease.
A cancer.
There is obviously no answer.
