Curtain Call

I’ll never be who I was when I was with you
How lucky am I, That you betrayed me
How lucky am I, That you hate me
I’ll never be what I was when I was with you

You threw me away, At the cost of a dollar sign and another foolish man
Was he the better man, Did he give you so much more
You threw me away, At the cost of a broken heart and another foolish night
Was it worth it, Losing me to gain nothing but my regret

I know you’ll regret it, I know you’ll come crawling back to me one day
You’ll be so sorrowful, So forgetful, So pathetic, You’ll bow down and say
“You were the best of me, You were the half to my whole, The day to my night”
I’ll look you right in your face, And shout every reason you showed me the light

You guided me to rock bottom, And held me down for so long, Oh so long
I swear you were right, You swear I was right, I swear this was wrong, Oh so wrong
Every single time I stood back up, You took me back down, To keep me by your side
Every single time I stood you back up, You laid back down, To keep swallowing your pride

I never realized how much I hated you, I never realized how destructive you were
Until you tore out my soul, And watched as my bottled emotions were stirred
I never realized how much I loved you, I never realized how pathetic you acted
Until you tore out my heart, And watched as the curtains closed on our romantic act
