Mistaken

Regret

That DNA test was my worst mistake

and sometimes I die inside

my heart is so easy to break.

Sometimes I think my back will break

from this load so heavy and wide

That DNA test was my worst mistake

It brought me nothing but heartache

every time you pushed me aside

my heart is so easy to break

It seems that you do nothing but take

what you want when you want, pacified

That DNA test was my worst mistake

You squandered my love for something so fake

I couldn’t even try to take it in stride

My heart is so easy to break

Demonize me, for goodness’s sake,

lie and say you really tried

That DNA test was my worst mistake

Because my heart is so easy to break.

    'What you want when you want' this hits on another level. It is exactly like that for me. When I say no. Here comes the guit trip. The repetition made me feel this so deeply. That DNA test... I hope it's not what I think it was. I mean it can't be, because that's too much of a painful thing to go through. Outstanding work as always Harper 🤗❤️🖤
