You Can do better

I took a look in the mirror

and found out your superior.

I took a look at myself

and figured out why my life’s a living hell.

I always told you I didn’t understand;

There’s so many pretty faces.

But for some reason you’d rather me,

though that takes so much paitence.

Maybe it’s because,

You felt so much better,

about yourself standing next to me,

It was so easy to get her.

Or maybe it’s because

no one would ever try and steal me away

forever was a guarantee,

Unless you decided to run away from me.

Because you knew I would never leave.

I couldn’t do any better.

I only break and wither.

I come crashing down,

Fall to the ground,

Wishing I could be like her.

But now

you see,

you can do so, so much better,

is that why you left me?

And now we agree,

I’m unworthy,

I’m the lesser,

I’m happy for you,

you can do so, so much better.

Maybe one day you woke up,

Saw how beautiful you truly are.

You realized I need to shut up.

Because I always push it,

and take things to far.

Why do I do that?

I was so lucky that have you,

So why would I drag you down?

Didn’t mean to make you frown.

Well darling I’m glad you woke up,

You’re so, so much better.

Such a bright smile,

although you trouble in black leather.

Well honey I’m glad you looked in the mirror

to finally see what I see

nothing but perfection.

Too good for me.

I loved you so much,

I never once betrayed you.

Wanted you so much,

I’d never once disgrace you.

Could never fault you even when I knew you were wrong.

I didn’t wanna lose you,

But I’d feel like a loser to hold on.

To someone who clearly

wanted to be let go.

To something that clearly

just wanted to put on a show.

I know you’ll never return,

you’ll never come around again.

Something like that doesn’t happen twice

and I would always defend.

Will I ever feel like that?

Ever feel like that again?

Well hey,

I’m glad you opened your eyes

to see how lovely you are.

To see how I’ll never get far.

I’ll never be much.

I’m not much at all.

You can do better,

don’t come back here,

no never.

Trust me you can do better.

Don’t think of yourself as any less than perfect.

Don’t let you let you down ever.

You’re so much better.

I hate mirrors.

I hate my exterior.

I’ll always feel inferior.
