Excuse Me While I Vent


Thanks for showing me that I don't fucking need you,

That I should not have been so naive

 I should of known you can change your mind whenever you wanted

That the sweet words you said were just to get you by

For that moment, just for that time 

My daddy said If you love someone and they leave,

You'll just have to learn to love them in a different way, 

But I don't need to learn to "love" in a different way.

Because real love never leaves

Remember? At least that's what you used to make me believe
