Here's To Us

I never said I’d want you back,
Even though all the tears I cried were for you,
You sure as hell didn’t give a fuck,
You didn’t give a fuck about me anyway,
You gave a fuck about everyone else,
But they didn’t know the real you,
The real you who can make someone feel,
Feel so small,
So worthless,
The you who can hurt someone with just one sentence,
The you who could be violent,
The stubborn you.

Only now am I realizing all of this,
Now you’re out of my life,
And I’m happy,
Happier than I have been in a while,
But I feel sorry for you,
Because you won’t get any where unless you change,
But we all know that isn’t going to happen,
Why?
Because you’ve said before that you would change,
Because you don’t know how,
You’re so set in your ways that it may take a small miracle,
This may sound harsh to you,
But I reckon that you know this is true.

You hung up just after telling me you love me,
That was four months too late,
From the day you stopped saying those three words,
I knew where this would end up,
How right was I?

It was you who messed up everything with my best friend,
Not me,
You don’t know the meaning of the words “I’m sorry”,
Even though I’ve had to say them enough times,
Take responsibility for something every so often,
And for once in your life,
Think about others before yourself.
