GREATEST MISTAKE

about

That moment you realize what you thought was the best thing that could've ever happened to you ended up being the worst shit to ever happen to you. We allow ourselves to be mistreated, physicallly/mentally/emotionally/spiritually abused for the sake of not being alone.

lyrics

Your pretty lips look so clean
who knew the hidden vile they’d eventually project
allowing you to infest my being is my greatest life regret
I wish I could take all of my affections back
and lock them deep into my veins
they would be better given to someone who actually had a brain
and I let you talk to me as if I were a child
and I wasn’t your bridged over troubled water
if I could sell the lessons I learned from you
they’d be worth no more than a quarter
hope you’ve finally taken some time to look into that court order
my bad, no shade
but thinking about the fear in my body
after you unleashed your fury
I did my best to hide my bruises
I figured I’d do my civil duty and shield you once again
a mediocre lover and the worst kind of friend
and if I had the chance to tell you to your face
the damage you’ve done, there would be no end
I could go on and on about your lack of respect
what was clearly disrespect, you called it blunt and direct
how you denied your obvious manipulation
as if I would be too drunk and love struck enough to detect it
then after that point, I realized my heart died no need to resurrect it
and I figured if I loved you back to life
the edges would soften
but you gladly lead all of my dreams of us to a coffin
that you set ablaze every day I had to look in your face
and realize my greatest mistake
