Why Did I Try, When I Knew

You said you knew what you lost when I left
But then you go find another girl
she says, look what I am to him
Then you cover for her and say we're not together

So why did I ever feel like we were anything real
You hurt me and blamed me for everything
Then go ahead and make me leave saying it was for the best
So why did you pretend like you were missing me

Then go and post pictures of her on your account
You said you loved me and we were something real
But when I try to come back to you I get hurt instead
It was all a joke in the end I guess, wasn't it

I mean I loved you, I gave you my everything and you stabbed me in the back
I at least expected you to leave me before you went to find another
You said you changed and you wanted me back
But why did I ever believe you when I knew better

We almost started a life and had a family
But I guess in the end you were happy I lost our babies
And we always fought when I wasn't willing to be in the mood
But you never acknowledged my presence when I wanted you

We loved each other, we met in the most unexpected way
And you told me sweet lies and made me think this was something real
But when I challenged you or wanted to have a life you shot me down
Said we were so in love but I knew we were toxic

Yet when I got better you got worse
We tried again and again
Every time I tried to change I tried to be better, you stayed the same
And now I know I was nothing in the end just like before
