Me 1st

Me 1st:

Learning to put me 1st, this is a difficult task

It was you; I raised you so high, I know you didn�t ask me to

It was the first time I fell in-love; what can I say, I loved your sexy ass

It is not me to give love, and then snatch it right back

I am just trying to figure out; how to live with, what I will never have

I read your words, over and over; you said, we can only go so far; you made it clear as day

I was naive, but I have always been; I thought� well, it doesn�t matter anyway

1st- I need to learn to put me first; I will figure it out someway

I just had this crazy dream for you and me; it was silly and childish anyway

I am not taking love from you; but theirs limits to what you want our love to do

You made it clear as day; we will do this your way

I am just trying to figure out how to live, with what I do not have

Honestly if I knew what you made clear; I think I would have reconsidered falling in-love with you

I have to learn to live, with what I will never have

I love you, I love you I do and I did; but I read your words, I just wish I knew it then

I wish I knew in the beginning, I would not struggle now; to live without something I will never have

Learning to put me 1st is a difficult, tormenting, treacherous task

Learning to live with something you will never have; Wow! All I can say, is it was mean. It was mean of you to hold those feelings away from me. When I asked you over and over what were we? I use to have a childhood dream you took that from me. Now I need to put me 1st I have nothing to offer anymore; I am nothing at all, maybe you will realize this and forget me.
