Quinientos

Just like a star
I admired you from afar

It's not fair that you no longer care
Cause I was always there

Don't you remember?

I know your memory could be quite hazy
Since you've replaced me

But you don't recall breaking down
When you felt down?
How I didn't make a sound
And flipped your frown into a crown?

You're dancing with the devil happily
Guess I was too heavenly
Cause I led you towards the gate
but you made an escape

Our memories keep playing
over and over in my head
like an on-going series
We both play the main characters
The rest are just extras
I know this story is done
I'd like it to stop
but it already begun

Doesn't that costume get heavy?
Doesn't your palms get sweaty?
Do you start to twitch
when you begin to reminience?
or did our memories fade into thin air
When you passed your fingers
through her thick hair

I hope when you lean in for a kiss
you think of my lips
My soft, plush lips
And when you lay down to rest
I hope,
You think about the things you said
The day you left

I guess when you saw her curvy hips
that's when you decided to ditch me
You got captivated in her charms
And took me off your arms

Every heartbreak leaves me
with cramped fingers over a keyboard
Transferring messages I try to bury
That the voice in my head won't let me

Why did you use those words,
The words you knew would hurt?
It felt like you wanted to cut me,
just to see me bleed.

You left me as if she had placed a curse
Is that why i'm no longer your concern?
Because you've discerned my worth?

You came from wanting to be my boo
And you'd always choose...who?
To "Considering my feelings"
When you spilled yours
all over the carpet not too long ago
The stains still there for proof
And everytime you wanted to fall off the roof

I would pull you in with my strings
And you'd get entangled in again
I didn't expect to be one of your one time flings

I know you made promises
But will you keep them this time?
I thought you wanted to be mine
But I guess you wanna be hers
this time..

This isn't my first betrayal, or my first let down
I don't know why I wanted you to stay so badly
Maybe because everybody left so quickly
No one decides I'm worth the pain
and all the pleasure no matter the weather

All that's left is the ghost of who you use to be
A piece of me faded when you decided to leave
My heart dropped and suddenly it got harder to breathe

My cherry still blossom
My star still berry
My water still melon
But my best isn't my friend
And I can't fix that

I wrote five hundred words just for you
Just in case you ever forget,
I was one of your best regrets
