Ode to an ex
For my ex the stupid, selfish git who put me through hell for three yearsI went and I gave him everything
he took and took giving nothing in return
I couldn't see where I went wrong
but he was selfish, greedy, needy so unlike me
My problem has always been not knowing what I wanted
When I want something I get it and then don't want it so much anymore
The challenge does it for me its a fatal flaw
But this was different, this was love or so I believed
He led me along and I was blind to everything his faithfulpuppy dog
Used and abused and so damn confused
when you said you loved me what did you mean?
In the end you got what you wanted from me and left
You left me there scared and uncertain not sure what to do
And stupid me I thought you'd come back too
Now I laugh remembering how I let you close
I won't do it again you know not with you or anybody else
It wasn't just my heart that broke but my body and spirit too
I was so depressed so sure it was my own fault that I had lost you
Even now I look back and wonder, could it been me
but atleast not I've seen how cruel men can be
he took and took giving nothing in return
I couldn't see where I went wrong
but he was selfish, greedy, needy so unlike me
My problem has always been not knowing what I wanted
When I want something I get it and then don't want it so much anymore
The challenge does it for me its a fatal flaw
But this was different, this was love or so I believed
He led me along and I was blind to everything his faithfulpuppy dog
Used and abused and so damn confused
when you said you loved me what did you mean?
In the end you got what you wanted from me and left
You left me there scared and uncertain not sure what to do
And stupid me I thought you'd come back too
Now I laugh remembering how I let you close
I won't do it again you know not with you or anybody else
It wasn't just my heart that broke but my body and spirit too
I was so depressed so sure it was my own fault that I had lost you
Even now I look back and wonder, could it been me
but atleast not I've seen how cruel men can be
