Disinfectant


You caused so much pain

That you will never be able to comprehend in your brain

All the stains

And disdain

You’ve caused

Will always remain

You began a campaign

In hopes that you would reign

But that is a spot you will never attain

Because your exposure would be in vain

Get off the train

Stay in your lane

We refuse to do things for our own personal gain

You will never be able to constrain

The fire that is inside my membrane

Now I’ve got a migraine

I guess you think you’re pretty hot, but I set fire to the rain

By the time I’m done with this all you’re gonna do is complain

Because you can’t accept the mistakes you’ve made

But you just had to betray 

That’s your own fault and you’re gonna pay

Because we got each other until our last day

When we lay

All you had to do was stay

I could write a whole essay

About how you left her astray

What’s wrong are you feeling afraid?

I would be too if I were in your place

You’ve got yourself in a tough case
