Same Shit

Sat at the bar I work at,
Just to catch up with some mates,
They told me what he'd been up to,
How he should be someone I hate.

Apparently he was going from woman to woman,
Trying to get his end away.
Each time he failed, he moved on,
But still went home alone at the end of the day.

Apparently he was really shitty with my dad,
Apparently he swung for him and missed.
Apparently he was being an obnoxious bastard.
Of course he was, he always is when he's pissed.

My 'mates' and my dad tell me all of this,
And watch my reaction with eager eyes.
Waiting for me to explode,
That way they'll know for nearly 3 years, we've been telling bad lies.

I smile at them, make a sarcastic comment,
Won't give them the satisfaction this time around
But inside I'm falling apart,
And my heart breaking again is the only sound.
