TWAIN
(1 of 7)
she had the most beautiful name
or so it seemed
she was the girl of my dreams
that were nightmares
you know what that means
it was whatever i felt
that had me loving you
until there was nothing left
you had all of me
since June of ‘13...
i was in love with you
or whatever that means
cause it was nothing to you
but to me
it was everything
remember those rings?
maybe when you’re alone
they’ll start to ring bells
time was never on our side
don’t throw your pennies in that wishing well
your mama told me it was a fairytale.
i stayed down for you
even when you brought me down
loving you so deeply with intention
i knew i was bound to drown
look at me now
after loving you for so many years
where are you now
when i need you to dry my heart’s tears
after all
you’re really the one to blame
if you were unhappy
i ain’t know a thing
you did a great job
putting on a show
but that audience you put on for
were the first ones out the door
when you decided to walk away from me
you really can’t convince me that there’s another woman that’ll love you better than me.
don’t you see?
you thought that grass was greener on the other side
but it ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be...
you made a fool out of me
you allowed me to love you
recklessly
you got the best of me
even when there was nothing
left in me
and then you left me
while you were laying next to me
but now
you’re dead to me
or at least i wish you were
you got me in this corner thinking bout life and shit and
how blessed it is to love
but that shit’s a curse
‘cause all you did was play with my love...
my love...
