looking back
and knowing myself
there were so many times
we could've fought

any normal person
would be glad to see
that they didn't
but not me

I could've been a bitch
the night we were out
until 1 AM
the night you met my Tia and cousins
also the last time
I took pictures of you

I could've said so many things
in the Maverick parking lot
or even on the drive
but instead I let my emotions consume me
and become drowsy and tired
I'm an asshole like that
I shouldn't have been nice that night
I shouldn't have been nice most days
and yet I was

maybe I should've fought with you
so many times I kept
my pretty little mouth shut
while I had suspicious thoughts inside
just fucking desperate to escape
it's a shame only my best friends
ever heard them
instead of you

maybe then we would've ended a lot faster
and so many things
would be different right now
