i always noticed
how chapped your lips were
you said you don't know
what to do with them

i tried kissing you
and you hated it
because your lips were chapped
that was what you said

i remember having
nothing in my wallet
just a few dollars left
but i went to the pharmacy

i got you the chapstick
that i always wear
wanted you to kiss me
so bad i spent all i got

and then we kissed a lot

then after a week
you were in my bed
and i was naked
waiting for you to kiss me again

but you were on your phone
didn't even listen when i talked
i got furious and i looked at your texts
you said you loved her and that she was your princess

the same name you called me
all this time for all these months
you went out of your way
to travel to my house just to break my heart

how much does it hurt
you ever wonder?
knowing i was right there
and still not being enough

you missed her
when she was thousands of miles away
not a care in the world
for the girl who gave you everything she had

and now you're probably kissing her
with the very chapstick i bought for you
and now you're probably telling her
how she's a pretty princess and she'll never get hurt

no one matters
to people like you
if you could hurt me
i know you would hurt them too

i know they'd be crying too
and you don't deserve it at all
no one should be crying about you
no one should be hurt except for you
