Have you ever got everything you've ever wanted ?

no, but i once got really close.

I have never wanted to be in love

I honestly didn't find it possible

some would say I have high standards

I like to call it self respect

but you threw every bit of that out the door the first time we spoke

I wanted you to be the one i married

I never wanted kids but I wanted to have yours

The idea of more you in the world brought so much joy

I wanted you so badly I threw away all my plans, all of that for a boy

I wanted us to do whatever you wanted

I never have wanted to stay in this town

But there I was ready to settle down

I never wanted to be a traditional wife

But hey I could see me in the kitchen with a knife

I needed you to hold me in my darkest moments

But I realized you couldn't because you were always asleep

I needed you to be understanding on my bad days

But I forgot good girl friends only give 100% even when they receive 0

I tried so hard to hold on

I tried for months to talk myself out of it

I defended you to no end when there was nothing to save your reputation

I once got so so close to everything I wanted

I hate so badly that you didn't want to be what I needed

I hope you find the girl that's worth it

I'm never the test but i'm always the lesson
