Ex-Boyfriend (DT)

If you treat me like you were supposed to,

Maybe I wouldn’t have had to have hurt you.

You hurt me in more than one way,

So I have something important to say.

 

Cheat me, hit me, bite me, force me,

Spit on me, lie to me, can’t you see?

You hurt me more than any other,

To get back at you I kissed your brother.

 

Something I’ve managed to keep quiet for a while,

Just thinking about revenge makes me smile.

I really thought I was in love with you,

But honestly, being with you, anything could be true.

 

The amount of times I’d cried and cried,

I always returned when you apologised.

My excuse? It was being young and forced,

By someone who I thought loved me of course.

 

But you never loved me, not at all,

every time I thought I was standing tall.

When, in fact, I was looking like you,

A stupid, idiotic, childish fool.

 

So I’m glad I finished the relationship,

Happy I escaped and got away quick.

Imagine what’d happen if I’d stayed with you,

I’d be a selfish cow and extremely cruel.
