MY GREATEST MISTAKE

I'm going under, it's taking over
I'm drowning slowly
But nobody cares
Or understands

My heart's been ripped out
Torn to shreds.
Unloved and rejected
Another soul wasted.

He knows me all too well
He tells me things
That he knows will hurt.
But says them without regret.

A slight hint of pleasure I hear
As the words roll of his tongue
We're over done
I'm not yours for the taking

The ring is turned upside down
I wasted 8 months on you
Now I'm f u c k e d
And stuck with the memories of us

You lied to me
Made me believe for a moment
Too long of a moment
That we could be together

I dealt with your flaws
Loved you through it
All the shit people talked
But they saw the real you

I was blinded
Not by your looks or anything
But by something so simple
Simple as love

Well you are my one mistake
The thing that when I grow up
And my kids ask me my biggest regret
I will say loving him

I waited for you
Through your pain and problems
But it looks like you didn't need it
Cause you weren't gonna get with me in the end

I guess we weren't meant for this
I wish I could've seenearlier
Before I fell deeper into your trap
And got hurt more each second

I lived for you
And every breath you took
I though you were the one
It turns out you were

But not in the usual sense
You were the one
The one that caused me a lietime
Of pain and misery
