You told me you loved me
but it turned out you didn’t.
My mind tells me to go
but my heart won’t quit it.

When I talked to you,
you seemed spaced out.
You joke around
but I can tell
you don’t mean it.
You said I was your everything,
but you meant I was nothing.

You used me to cover up
your feelings for her.
You used me
to get her jealous.
I guess it worked
cuz now you ignore me
because you’re too busy with her.

Too bad she didn’t love you,
The way I did.
Too bad I acted like
I could just quit.
