Yesterday Trash

This love was not supposed to be
I don't know what was wrong with me
I wish we could have just been friends
I'm sure you know how this story ends
A night of drinking led to sex
And a few bruises on our necks
My back, the canvas where she marked
The night that would tear us apart

She bought my drugs and kept me fed
And kept me entertained in bed
And in return, I stuck around
I told cruel jokes and put her down
She gave me all that she possessed
When I'd get drunk she'd clean the mess
And even though I'd treat her bad
She loved with everything she had

And to this day, I still can't tell
Why I put her through so much hell
Another day, another fight
Another sweaty, sleepiness night
And in the evening when I woke
She'd bring me coffee and a smoke
She'd fetch my bowl and pack it up
And go get me another cup

I knew that I did not deserve
The dedication I observed
And at the time, I didn't care
I'd smack her ass and pull her hair
One day I fell and broke my crown
Then I was just another clown
Her feelings for me faded fast
And she tossed me out with the trash
