That’s alright chocolate eyes
You called me intoxicated
“Look, I like you”
That’s what you said
You don’t do this (you said)
As you crawled into my bed
And seeped into my head
You called me sweetheart
Words so soft like petals
Sweet nothings
You we’re with her
But you said
“I want to date you”
I told you I fear abandonment
“I’m not going anywhere”
You said
I know I’m too needy
But “it’s fine”
You said
Her
“She’s so beautiful”
You said
I choked
“Nothing will happen”
You said
I’m on edge
“I let her nuzzle into my neck”
You said
You’re smirking
“I whisper sweet nothings to her”
You said
I was so scared you’d leave
“That’s alright”
I said
When you made me watch
You kissing her
I apologized
I felt sickness in my stomach
Nausea ebbing within
Tightness and stabbing in my chest
Restless days and nights
Followed by nightmares
Of you and her
Because of fate?
“I don’t want you in my life”
You said
My cries were met by
“I’ve severed my emotions”
That’s what you said
I kept reaching out
“We think it’s funny”
That’s what you said
I told you to be with her
But the truth is
I wanted you to be with me instead
Tears fall
“That’s alright, it’s alright”
I tell myself
You’re in her bed
And you’re in my head
That’s alright? (No)
“I like you”
That’s what you said
You just like her more
You made me forget my pain
Just to cut a new wound
Into my scarred body
I know you’re with her tonight
I’m with someone else
That’s alright
Baby
You were looking so sweet
But you’re bitter and sour
Such cruelty
From a boy
With chocolate eyes
“Look, I like you”
That’s what you said
You don’t do this (you said)
As you crawled into my bed
And seeped into my head
You called me sweetheart
Words so soft like petals
Sweet nothings
You we’re with her
But you said
“I want to date you”
I told you I fear abandonment
“I’m not going anywhere”
You said
I know I’m too needy
