It’s ok
If you want
To stay
I will be
The one
To leave
But just
Remember
When they find out
It’s my loss
They will grieve
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
It’s ok
If you want
To stay
I will be
The one
To leave
But just
Remember
When they find out
It’s my loss
They will grieve
This should’ve been
About convenience
And not a true
Affair of the heart
But when you tell me lies
To my total surprise
It completely
Tears me apart
If I was to meet my father
When he was a younger man
I would ask him some questions
To help me to understand
Like did he ever really love her
That’s what I’d like to know
Why did he defy his parents
If it was all just for show?
Why when he had his own kids
Did he revert back to what he knew
Why treat us the way he had been
What was he trying to do?
But most of all I’d tell him
Of the mistakes he was going to make
And convince him to do things differently
For our relationships sake
With his winning charm
And heart of valour
He led her home
Where he knew he’d have her
With her flowing hair
And knowing grin
She followed him home
Where she knew she’d win
Sometimes
I regret
What I said
And how often
I showed you
The door
As it never seemed
To matter
How your heart
Was shattered
You’d always
Come back
For more
If all I had to do
Was tolerate you
Then really
You should’ve just asked
It was when I thought
You wanted more
That I totally
Fucking cracked
As we lie here
My head spinning
I wonder which
One of us
Is winning
It’s
hard
to
know
which
is
which
When
you
can
be
such
a
bitch
