She said after a while silence is betrayal.  
But I'm over you now.  
There is no need for words,  
You know what you did.  
Besides, I didn't leave to teach you a lesson.
Rather, I left because I finally learned mine.  
You think you've changed,  
But a snake only sheds its skin  
So it can become a bigger snake.  
You like to put off this vibe of peace and love,  
A gypsy queen and a hippie refugee from the sixties,  
But woman you've got a lot of venom  
And a hair trigger to go with it.  
You've shown me who you really are  
And i should have believed you the first time.  
Shame on me  
Maybe I'm a slow learner,  
But I finally got there.  
If it makes you feel any better  
You'll always be my favorite mistake.
