You're Her Problem Now

Take the blades you stole from me and give them to your latest lover

watch her slice away the pain you're surely causing her,

Laugh as you take control.


Poison her mind like you did to me,

turn her against all that she loves,

isolate her, manipulate her

make her your little doll.


Control her every aspect of life

her money, her jobs, her friends.

Laugh and mock her when she cries,

Make her feel so low. 


You did all this to me and more

you made me want to die

you made my confidence wither

and my independence lost


Yet she laughed too when I crumbled, 

when you kicked me to the ground.

called me a loser when I walked away

Like she had won somehow.


She called me spiteful and pathetic

when I told the world of what you had done

when I finally admitted you abused me, 

when I came out of it stronger, braver, afraid no more.


So use her and abuse her,

treat her just like you treated me

and in six years when she crawls away from your shit 

she'll be the one who is sorry, not me
