Cheater, Oh Cheater

Cheater oh Cheater.
Look what you’ve done
Kept me wrapped around your finger,
Head up against a gun.

Up against the corner,
Hidden from the world
Your fist colliding with my face;
fingers curled.

It wasn’t fair,
I was out of luck
Your and your dumass friends
Acting like schmucks

Cheater oh Cheater.
What have you done?
Kept me wrapped around your finger,
Head up against a gun.

This love wasn’t real,
Fooled by your bright green eyes.
Sitting back with popcorn in your hand
Laughing as my heart slowly dies.

You’d torn me apart
Broke me down
Put me on a shelf for show
Leaving you with the golden crown.

Left you after all those years
My heart on my sleeve
The sun rose once again
Telling me it was time to leave.

Cheater oh Cheater.
What have you done?
This love wasn’t real
and clearly I won
