I don't like this.
I don't like this at all.
The worst part is you don't even care.
I gave you my heart.
And you took it just to play with.
And like any child, you got bored with the one toy.
So you went and found some new toys.
And I don't get it.
It's not alright.
You LIED to me.
You told me that you were mine.
You told me that I was yours.
My heart aches at the thought.
You didn't care.
You don't care.
You didn't even give me a chance.
A chance to show you how it could be.
Cause I cared.
I cared about you so much.
But now...
I'm glad I didn't get a chance.
It would have been worse.
It would have been harder that it is already to get over you.
Why me?
Why did I have to fall for your false charm.
Why did I have to fall for that smile.
Why did I have to fall for your slick words.
Why did I have to cave into your touch or the way you said my name.
Like butter I melted in your presence.
I was so stupid.
