In My Face


You slammed the door in my face You totally put me in my place Told me I didn't belong Said that's how you felt all along Told me that you didn't mean to lead me on You told me that your feelings were gone I should have known That until I've grown Life will be tough It will be rough But when the opportunities pass me by I shouldn't feel like I want to die The broken heart that you created I'm glad we never dated But someday I hope the right guy comes to your door And he shows you that you are so much more Maybe this door in my face Actually became my saving grace

This happened after a girl broke my heart, but I realized that there is always someone else waiting to pick up those broken pieces of your heart and put them back together.
