If I’m Being Honest

You Suck

If I’m Being Honest

You set my heart on fire

with your casual smile

Lit my fuse like a pyre

and let it burn for a while

but if I’m honest

truly honest

I wish that you’d combust

is that too much

you left my heart broken and now I need a crutch

I forget how to trust

and if I’m being honest

I honestly think you’re the worst

and I must be cursed

cause every time I turn around

your words knock me to the ground

and I’m done

your loves no fun

a wrecking ball

you’ve destroyed it all

and now we’re through

if I’m being honest with you
