I walk through the doors in the morning each day

Boys and girls sucking face as if they're gonna stay

Together through the years till death do them part

But then the bullshit and lies start breaking hearts.

 

You think you've found the one?...

We're only in high school.

He says he loves you a ton?...

Girl, you're such a fool.

 

Just wait, soon enough his true colors appear

A chameleon changing shades when his friends are near.

Delusional dreamer, stand up for yourself

So you're not just another trophy up on his shelf.

 

He's not what he seems

Just a pig in disguise

Big, bad, and mean

Like all other guys.

 

Prince Charming at first with his smiles and love

Writing songs for you 'cause you're the world to him.

I wish you'd have the strength to rise above

his fakeness that grows while all hope dims.

 

Sloppy seconds, ha, guess its you're turn now

He's just a cat on the prowl, stalking prey, meow.

Take a shot at his game you have no chance to win

After all, now you're just trash from a trash bin.

 

I thought we were friends, family forever

Dream team on defense denying what comes near

Stabbed in the back, but it's whatever

Guess from now on I'll remember to steer clear.
