"Cheated On"

English

It's all the same

Just an uncomfortable numbing pain

The kind you can't just shake off

So you have to sit there ready to let it leap off

It's strange how you can feel betrayed

When no trust was ever built there in the first place

Strange to feel cheated on

When you never had him

Only just getting led on

A toy I am to them

A toy I seem to be to men

I have finally given up hope

That maybe one day

I'll stay afloat

I don't believe in fairy tales

But Christ you didn't need to cause me so much grief

All because it was fun to mess with one girl

And let her feelings play on repeat

Here I am again

Pissed at myself for believing you

When really

It's just men who do this to me

Like a broken record

I'm left on repeat

So I imagine the next one

Will laugh

Seeing me on the same beat.
