Should've Been Me

When you made all these promises,
You never meant a word, did you?
You filled my head with all the pretty things you said.
And I believed every single lie.
All the feelings I felt for you left me without a care.

Why did you have to leave me here?
Left with only a memory of you.
Looking at this picture in my hand
Is as close to you as I can stand.

Are things exactly how you wanted them to be?
Did it ever cross your mind how badly you hurt me?
You know you were all I needed.
But that didn't change your view of me.
Now you're as happy as can be
With a girl that should have been me.
