You think you are the victim
But everyone knows
That you are not
You didn't even want me
So what is the big deal
I haven't done a thing
I politely asked you to leave me be
And then you hold it against me
Why are you so caught up in this
I can't help what other people say
I didn't tell them to stand up for me
But they did so anyway
They saw that what you were doing
Was rude and unnecessary
You didn't want me around
So why must you keep trying to see
What I say
What I do
And who I talk to
Be hateful for no reason
That's fine
A guilty conscious will ruin you
In time

He and I spend the nights together
Caught up in each other's eyes
The television as background noise
The only light in the dark living room
Close cuddles on the couch
Deep kisses intoxicate
Make me forget all the bad
And remember who I've given my heart to
The one who makes me feel warm
Even on the coldest nights

I was once a believer in true love
I thought that if someone showed enough interest
And enough care and love
Enough tenderness and consideration
That they would be able to, in turn, be loved and appreciated all the same
When I gave that to you
When I was a mere player in your game
And bought into your plots and schemes
When I believed your excuses, your deceit
I came to the realization that all you did was reject me
You dangled your love in front of me
Just out of my reach
With that, you ruined me
You singlehandedly destroyed any hope I had for true love
I hope you sleep well at night
Knowing you destroyed someone who was once so sure of herself
And so capable of loving
Now all I am is numb
