And no matter how much I tried
How much I was willing to do
How much I sacrificed
It wasn't enoughI never was, was I?
No matter what I did
No matter how I changed
Or stayed true to myself
No matter the warnings
Or the promisesNo matter your good intentions
Or me knowing the outcome
I was always the colateral damage
To the memories of someone elseThe "I'll never forget you"
To people who never talked again
No matter how strong and tough I am
My tears won't stop rolling down my cheeksNo matter how clearly I know my worth
I just wanted to beg you to stayYou weren't willing to put me first
As I did with youNo matter that I gave my all
I am never the one
