It was you and me
It could’ve been three
Living peaceful
But it was make-believe
I cried out, “Baby, please!”
But you weren’t listening
Watching you leave planted a seed
The seed turned into a need
I now ask the wife-to-be
How are thee?
I pray the life you lead
Is like the girl that used to be
What happens now is history
Even if you don’t see
Other people bleed
You don’t do it willingly
You do it gleefully
Annoyingly.
Obnoxiously.
Happily.
All without me.
All I want to do is RIP
But the bells from your wedding won’t let me
I should’ve objected
All my feelings have been neglected
The same reason you left is
I tried to treat us like Tetris
When the pieces didn’t fit
We kept them piling on
Instead of trying to flip
The frustration made you quit
Before the game was even over
I wish I could quit too
But from you, I’ll never sober
I wish I could hold you closer
Than your husband at the reception
With you, there’s always this deception
Something I’m still protectin
My pride will never lessen
Maybe if I spill my heart out
I’ll learn my lesson
If the world didn’t hate me
I’d be less scared of rejection
And leave the married couple
To their wedding night caressin
I hold this anger in my heart
From my unsaid confession
So baby, while you’re lying there
Husband in your bed
I want you to know
Three years ago
Is still stuck in my head
And tomorrow you’ll turn on the news
And see that I am dead
But I didn’t want to ruin
The blessed day that you were wed
