THE HARDEST THING I EVER HAD TO DO (WAS MAKE MYSELF LEAVE YOU)

Hey, why are you knocking at my door
what could you possibly want me for
Pain is resurfacing seeing you here
but you knew that when deciding to appear

Don't dare stand there claiming to have cared
mutual love and respect was never shared
I constantly gave of myself while in turn you just took
you maliciously hurt me by showcasing a provocative look

I was just a game you figured would be easy to play
I'm certain you felt superior treating me that way
Passion turned into something I had to beg for
when we had sex you made it seem like a chore

From you deception wasn't the only consistent thing I got
you also made sure my emotions stayed tied in a knot
Pain you induced daily I couldn't let show on the outside
tears I cried because of you fell plenty on the inside

Why you decided to do me the way you did is truly sad
you'll regret losing the best you could ever have had
I graduated from the road of getting over you my dear
you get to witness me shed for you this one last tear

When together you chose to act as if you were free
so take all your vile mendaciousness and flee
