when did you turn bitter
was it when she touched you
spun lies you couldn’t reject

or did you turn bitter long before
when love felt like a slice of lemon
dripping on an open wound

was the pain of losing me so great
that you’d rather give up
before fighting for what’s left

did you turn bitter before you broke my heart
or did you turn bitter
after
when i broke yours
with lies as easily spun as hers
