Don’t pretend to give a damn about me when you don’t.

I cried a lot because of you.

I laughed a lot because of you.

I believed in love because of you.

I keep telling myself that this is the last time.

Then I have to tell myself that again the next night.

Get out of my head.

I heard you were a player. Welcome to the Game.

And then it occurred to me that you haven’t missed me at all!

I have no time for your negative bulls***.

You didn’t give a crap about me.

You just didn’t want to be alone.

I was a placeholder until someone better came along.

I really am worthless, aren’t I?

But, I still love you.
