Nothing Special
You made me feel special
Like I was worth something
To you I was not just pretty
But perfect
I thought it would mean something
I thought what we had was special
I was wrong
You told me all the right things
You held me close as we danced
You knew exactly what to do
You took care of me
But when it was all said and done
I wasn't all that special
I wasn't pretty or perfect
I wasn't anything special
It meant nothing to you
I
meant nothing to you
We had nothing
You made me feel cheap
*****, used.
I didn't matter
In the next room, totally forgotten
Out of sight out of mind
It was my fault,
Just as much as it was yours
I will own it
I will move past it
I will pick up my broken pieces
And keep moving forward
No matter what,
I refuse, to let you make me feel worthless
I refuse to let this break me.
I don't need you
To make me feel special
But for that one night,
I wanted to be something special to you.
