You're selfish.
You're a cheater and a liar.
You're manipulative.
You're a coward.

Use your charm as a trap
for those of us found weak and defenseless.
Harmless fun, for now.

You may be all of those things,
but I am worse to blame.

I believed the lies.
I saw you manipulate girl after girl.
I thought I was different.
But boy, was I wrong.

I was so stupid to fall for your tricks.
Living a life of ignorant bliss.
Falling further and further
Until I hit bottom
Forgiving, forgetting, like nothing had happened.

You can't have my pride,
You can't take my dignity.
No longer.
You can't have me.
