Was it just yesterday
when we were holding hands?
Said we loved each other?
Then the next day
you throw the ring
in my face,
said you'd found another man
you traded one for the other.
you filthy cheat, tramp, liar
I should have seen it coming
Should of seen all the signs
but I was blinded by this commercial love
this tainted love you have severed
my heart with.
You didn't just break my heart,
you pile drove it into the ground.
Six feet under.
These needles are poisoned
with your lies
why can't I erase you
out of my mind?

Did I need so badly to feel loved?
Why did I not just read a book,
or go to sleep
Who do you fool when you cheat
Nobody but yourself
With ruses and tricks to beat
The honest for top shelf
What is the price
