One More Moment

You played me like a game.
So controlling.
So manipulative.
And I hold a secret that could destroy you.
Embarrass you.
Kill you.
Promises mean nothing when you break them.
Walls aren't so sacred
Since you keep knocking them down.
And even when I dipped my words in acid,
You kept attacking.

Never, ever underestimate me.
Just because I'm nice doesn't mean
I won't rip you apart.
And you can take your heart and charm and walk out of the door.
If you had stayed for one more moment
I can promise you wouldn't be here today.

Tried to tell me how sweet you are
And that you've been hurt so many times before,
You can't see the harm you've caused.
You only have your best interest at heart.
'No' means 'no' and 'stop' means 'stop'.
But why listen when
Your secret fuels your urges.

Never, ever underestimate me.
Just because I'm nice doesn't mean
I won't rip you apart.
And you can take your heart and charm and walk out of the door.
If you had stayed for one more moment
I can promise you wouldn't be here today.

So go ahead and boo-hoo and sob
And rant about how I won't respond.
You're the reason I won't call,
Won't text at all.
Beg me to tell you how I feel
And to talk it out,
Even though there's nothing left to say.
I've said it all.

Never, ever underestimate me.
Just because I'm nice doesn't mean
I won't rip you apart.
Had I stayed one more moment
I can promise you wouldn't be here today.
