Fool Me Twice

My heart has been shattered

My feelings a wreck

When I learned your deceit

It snapped my soul’s neck

It used to be us

With such strength and honor

Now when we fuck

Do you long to be on HER?

How could you do it?

Not once, but twice?

You say I should trust you

But you told me lies

You say they’re not lies

But you hid the truth

You did something deceitful

Did something uncouth

You did something that hurt me

Both now and back then

Knowing how much it hurt me

Why did you do it AGAIN?

I used to trust you

You made me feel safe

Now I’m doubting myself

And I’m losing my faith

My man, my protector

The one with my heart

Abandoned and hurt me

Now I’m falling apart

You get mad and yell

And throw things in my face

Retreat like a coward

Leave me in disgrace

You just don’t respect me

As shown by your actions

My tears, hurt, and anger

Are natural reactions

If I did unto you

As you’ve done unto me

You’d be much more angry

You’ll have to agree

I used to feel comfort

Beside you in bed

Now I lay awake and wonder

If she’s in your head

Or maybe not her

That plays in your dreams

But some other girl

With whom your mind schemes

My blood slowly boils

My heart beats too fast

We were going to be married

But that did not last

We called off the wedding

The reasons abound

But mention of other girls

Did not make a sound

I can’t even describe

How hurt that I feel

Spend every day praying

That it just isn’t real

You no longer want me

As your partner, your wife

I’m not the only woman

That you want in your life

How could I be so foolish?

To fall for your charm?

Thought you’d make my life better

Not cause me such harm

You do some great things

Then others are bad

You make me so happy

Then you make me so sad

I wish that you'd love me 

Till death do us part

As your one and only

Not one little part.
