I wish
You weren’t the one
To hurt me
You always knew
Just what not to say
You really liked to lure me
Into a false sense of hope
And for fun, turn right around
And just take it all away
I wish
You weren’t the one
To treat me like nothing
And act as if I was some big piece of shit
I wish
You weren’t the one
To beat me down and then keep running
Like I was something
For you to just fuck right over
When you decided you
Needed to just be a bitch
If this teaches me anything
It’s to never trust anybody that looks like you
Don’t come tryin’ to preach to me about memories
When you know that they don’t mean a damn thing
And what I might just have to do
Why don’t you crawl back to the rock you oozed out from under
And go eat you a nice big pile of shit
Don’t worry cuz yeah, I still do sometimes wonder
About you but only for all of the things I now regret
I wish
You weren’t the one
That I find myself missing
Not understanding why I would do that to myself
And it does from time to time leave me wishing
That you weren’t a psycho fucking bitch that needs some help
Don’t tell me I still have a piece of that cold, dark place you call a heart
It all fell all apart like a weakened wall, and I wasted away with worry
We kinda almost let ourselves get back to speaking, even in a hurry
But nothing could be like it ever was at the start
There was so much pain caused and love all lost like it was none
But don’t think it matters
Cuz you weren’t the one
You never had your doubts
You never could be true
You weren’t the one that loved the other one
And you don’t know what I do
It’s to never trust anybody that looks like you
Don’t come tryin’ to preach to me about memories
When you know that they don’t mean a damn thing
And what I might just have to do
Why don’t you crawl back to the rock you oozed out from under
And go eat you a nice big pile of shit
Don’t worry cuz yeah, I still do sometimes wonder
About you but only for all of the things I now regret
You weren’t the one that needed someone in their arms
You weren’t the one to sit up late at night tryin’ to figure out
Why somebody they love would do them so much harm
I wish
You weren’t the one
The one I wanted forever and a day
I wish
You weren’t the one
That thought that it was all just some big game to play
Everything I know…
It’s to never trust anybody that looks like you
Don’t come tryin’ to preach to me about memories
When you know that they don’t mean a damn thing
And what I might just have to do
Why don’t you crawl back to the rock you oozed out from under
And go eat you a nice big pile of shit
Don’t worry cuz yeah, I still do sometimes wonder
About you but only for all of the things I now regret
Don’t come around here knockin’ on my door
Don’t come around lookin’ out to find me
Like you did before
But it was only about you
You moved out, and hurt moved in
And I found out what to do
It’s to never trust anybody that looks like you
Don’t come tryin’ to preach to me about memories
When you know that they don’t mean a damn thing
And what I might just have to do
Why don’t you crawl back to the rock you oozed out from under
And go eat you a nice big pile of shit
Don’t worry cuz yeah, I still do sometimes wonder
About you but only for all of the things I now regret
