How did you know you were done with me?
Did your desire for me just fade away
Or did you really give up on me in that one moment
Why did you throw it all away?
What made me unworthy of a second chance
Or even just a warning that something was wrong
What happened that night?
Why give me hope for the future
Just to pry it out of my desperate hold
When did you decide?
Had you been plotting for days
Planning the best way to break me
How were you sure?
Confident that you could find someone better
You never even looked back
Why do I still need you?
After being ignored and forgotten
What keeps me from letting go
