The grass is always greener
That’s why I tore you apart
Copy and pasted the things I liked
Discarded the rest
Then put them into someone better
Until I realised my lack of hindsight
Accentuated the one glaring downside
The grass is never greener is it?!
I’ll learn for next time, I swear

As soon as my head hits the pillow, I burst into tears
Recalling the moment you walked away from me the first time
And brought to life my greatest fears
I was scared you were going to do the same again
That’s why I got in first, without taking the time to think
And now I have to live by another stupid mistake

Can you please give me one more chance,
To right the wrongs I’ve been living for so long?
I can change, I can change, I can change
I’m done telling all those lies
The ones that put your mind at ease but never fully satisfied
Please say something? like you believe me?
Please say something? like you still love me?
And then, maybe, we can go from there?

I’ll admit
I should’ve taken mum’s advice
She said you were wife material but that was immaterial
To someone who likes to Hara-kiri just for the fun of it
Watching on as you permeate the emphasis
Of how I cut you in two and crumbled to bits
How ironic
