I'm telling your ex,
She Missed Out.
That she shouldn't have cheated on you- so you don't doubt all your relationships after.
So you don't feel like you're hanging on every word I say and tread around our problems because you're scared I'm the same way.

I'm telling your ex,
She Was Wrong.
You're not the monster you think you are, you're not helpless or hopeless or a ***** up. You're so much more than you think you are.

I'm telling your ex,
She Needs To Apologize.
I mean get on her knees and scrounge for mercy-
because she doesn't see the pain shes caused through her careless acts everyday and there's no way to build someone up when all the pieces of them are shattered.

She doesn't see you when you grind your teeth at night and wake up from a dream scared I'm going to cheat on you too.
She doesn't see you wince when I hug you because she jabbed you with her fingers on your sides.
She doesn't see when I say I love you and I see the look in your eyes like you almost believe it then shut it out like you'll always be second best to a ghost that doesn't exist.

If I see your ex, I'll say,
You don't get to go in peoples lives and destroy them like a tornado. You're not the wishing star people grew up wanting. You're the crash and burn after finals week, when you've had one too many drinks at a bar, when you eat too much greasy food and lay in bed feeling disgusting.
