You pretended I was beautiful
That I was what you wanted
You put more effort in than I expected
Until I was trapped and I’m still haunted
Four years later and I still think about you
Even though you just used me for her
You’re the boy with the god complex
And I don’t know what I did to deserve it
When you were done with me you started a fight
So it wouldn’t be your fault at the end
But don’t worry, everyone knows what you did
And it doesn’t matter how much you pretend
But I guess in a way you did win
I can’t seem to fix me, or trust anyone else with my heart
I still have nightmares of you
I watch you break me apart
You told me you loved me
Just to keep yourself in control
But when I said I loved you
I meant it with my heart and soul
