I was consumed by love, believing you were the one,
Losing myself just to hold onto you a little long,
Swallowed your bitter words, I smiled amidst the hurricane,
Embracing the pain to provide you with solace 

You ran to her telling me you loved me still
Loved her the very next day I took my leave
And yet the blame fell on me,
Claimed my reaction  made you impulsive

Was it worth it,
To sacrifice all we could have gained,
For fleeting nights of emptiness,

Was it  worth it,
To scorch the heart of the woman who cared,
To discard every cherished memory we shared,

Tell me, oh please tell me, if it was worth it,
 All the pain I gained, all the nights that rained

Because I hope it was worth it.
for the fool, you have made out of me
