My Worst Memory

I don’t understand
That’s what you told me
You told me I was wrong
That feelings weren’t an argument
Only logic will do
‘Give me the facts’
Well here’s a fact
I’m broken
You broke me
They told me you were dangerous
You would hurt me
But you took my soft hand in your rough one and told me they didn’t know you, not really
You said you were safe
How stupid I was to believe you

I should have believed them
I should’ve run away when I had the chance
It was too late though
I had already popped a pill with your name on it
And I was hooked
Addicted to you
It became hard for me to avoid you
Did I even want to avoid you?

Too soon it all happened
Too soon to comprehend
Too soon the gold image that was you turned into a dull gray
Too soon was I hurt by you
Too soon was my dream broken and torn by reality
Too soon I had been made a fool of

No prescription
No dose they could sell
Could save me from this hell that is you
I wish it were easier
But heaven knows freedom ain’t free

I don’t understand
That’s what you told me
I guess in your eyes you were doing what was right
I was just another girl to say ‘I love you’ to
Another girl to use and abuse
I bet you don’t once think about the scars I leave on myself to make up for the ones you never left
Because you did no wrong
I was the one in the wrong

I don’t understand?
No.
You don’t understand
