Deserve
You thought of me as you danced with her
Your bracelet failed as a reminder
on my wrist, I still did kiss
the man that I shouldn’t
As your lips lay on hers
and your hands touched her hips
You only thought of me
But as his lips lay on mine
and his hands touched my hips
I only thought Why not?
not why I shouldn’t
Please don’t ever say I deserve better
You don’t know the half of it
I lied when you asked me this
I was wrong
and I continued to be, even with you
I’ll take advantage of every guy
even if they exploit me too
I’ll have more than one man that I am attracted to
I will love you with all my heart
but forget promises when another man opens up his arms
So don’t you ever say, that I deserve better anyway
I will cheat, I will lie, I will steal
your heart and break it along with mine
Only because I can
that is the only reason I can find
So if you say,
I deserve so much more, you may be right
I deserve to be apart from you
I deserve to not have you hear me out
I deserve to have the kind of sex that can ruin a girl’s life
I deserve to be shamed, blamed, and hurt
I deserve,
not you
You who did nothing wrong, made no mistake
except in loving me
You deserve better, I don’t deserve better
