Deserve
You thought of me as you danced with her
 Your bracelet failed as a reminder
 on my wrist, I still did kiss
 the man that I shouldn’t
 As your lips lay on hers 
 and your hands touched her hips
 You only thought of me
 But as his lips lay on mine
 and his hands touched my hips
 I only thought Why not?
 not why I shouldn’t
 
 Please don’t ever say I deserve better
 You don’t know the half of it
 I lied when you asked me this
 I was wrong
 and I continued to be, even with you
 
 I’ll take advantage of every guy 
 even if they exploit me too
 I’ll have more than one man that I am attracted to
 I will love you with all my heart
 but forget promises when another man opens up his arms
 So don’t you ever say, that I deserve better anyway
 I will cheat, I will lie, I will steal
 your heart and break it along with mine
 Only because I can
 that is the only reason I can find
 So if you say,
 I deserve so much more, you may be right
 
 I deserve to be apart from you
 I deserve to not have you hear me out
 I deserve to have the kind of sex that can ruin a girl’s life
 I deserve to be shamed, blamed, and hurt
 I deserve,
 not you
 You who did nothing wrong, made no mistake
 except in loving me
 You deserve better, I don’t deserve better
