For Him
Eyes can be deceiving and yours fooled mine
I thought I knew everything, but I guess I was blind
I was very naïve to believe you really loved me and I was stupid enough to let it drag on
The hurt I’ve put myself through to win your heart was the worst I’ve ever felt so far
But if you knew the sickness I suffered wasn’t from me, but you, it would change your perspective on things if you knew
After acting on feelings, you go and deny me so soon and I felt like I died when you did this wrong
I cared for you but you didn’t say a thing, and being me I tried to swallow my pride and move on
Today, I don’t care anymore
I don’t see how I could.
You never took the time to speak to me when you should have
And now I’m moving on looking for someone who’ll understand and give a damn.
Who’ll love me for the real me and not pretend you get me.
So I hope you find someone who cares for you like I did
Maybe she won’t be so livid when you hurt her
You’ve broken so many, you’ve conquered and toyed.
You’ve never felt pain
Have you ever felt the same?
If not, you’re just a boy
But regardless, my heart will keep beating though it is darker now
It will never trust you yet
It will never be there where you’re waiting right now, but unless your love for me was kept somehow I say screw it…
And good riddance
