You promised the world,

And I fell for it.

"I'll give you everything you ever wanted Jane, just be with me!"

I put you first,

And you adored it.

"Hey my parents are having dinner on Saturday, are you free?"

"No, there's a game."

"Can't you watch it another time?"

"No! Stop being selfish and cancel!"

"Alright....."

Set fire to my forest.

And you let it burn.

Sang off key to my chorus.

Cause it wasn't yours.

"Tonight we are honoring Jane Seymour for -"

"Boooooo!"

Jane swiveled to see Henry, drunk, and booing her.

"Excuse me sir -"

"Booo!"

Her boss stepped forward, but Jane put a hand out to stop him.

"Henry, why are you drunk? And booing me?"

"I should've gotten the award not you."

Jane's shoulders dropped.

"I thought you'd be proud of me, not jealous."

"I should've gotten it."

Jane turned to her boss.

"Just give it to him."

"What?"

"If it'll make him happy, just give it to him."


"You deserve that award Jane, not him."

He shook his head and handed Henry the award.

I saw the signs and I ignored it.

Rose colored glass all distorted.

"You're late, where were you?"

"None of your fucking business, where's dinner?"

"It isn't read yet."

"God! Can't you do anything?!"

____________

"You know he's cheating on you right?"

One of Jane's co workers commented. Jane swiveled to face her.

"He is not!"

"He tried to hit on me the other day, and Anne."

"I don't believe you."

Jane picked up her salad and marched away, ignoring the dread in her stomach.

____________

Set fire to my purpose.

And I let it burn.

"I think you should quit."

"What? Why?"

"You don't need to work! I'll take care of you!"
