The Mistake

It wasn’t that you thought you knew me
It wasn’t that I tried to let you see
It wasn’t that I knew the you you hide
It wasn’t that I was buried deep inside
It wasn’t that you weren’t true
The first mistake made was ever trusting you
It wasn’t your tits or ass that captivated me
It was your pretty eyes, you see
I could have cared more about the rest
But honestly in no category were you in the best
You thought your routine would win me over
In the past maybe then I would lower
You think you own me (you never could)
You think I’m crazy (you haven’t seen shit)
You think you know me (you know only what I want you to)
The second mistake came when it usually would
When you came round looking for wood
You never seemed to understand words
When you thought you’d bound me, I cut cords
When you’re looking back, years from now
When you become the thing you hate, a sow
You will know that what I offered you
Was well above what you were ever due
You have no idea what life could have been
If you had the bloody courage then
You think you own me (you never could)
You think I’m crazy (you haven’t seen shit)
You think you know me (you know only what I want you to)
Your final mistake was leaving me alive
When you thought you could connive
Attempts on my life epically failed
To a cross I will see you nailed
You thought you could end me
You should have dug two graves
I never had a doubt that I could be
The one that survived the closest shaves
You think you own me (you never could)
You think I’m crazy (you haven’t seen shit)
You think you know me (you know only what I want you to)
Death will take me when he gives a shit
This disease in you you could never quit
You thought you could make me damn toy
Bitch, you haven’t learned, yet? I’m not your boy
I’ve been through hell, I’ve been in the shit
I’m not some virgin fresh from his mommy’s tit
You’ve never seen the hatred for my kind
You’ve never had to stop and rewind
Searching for the truth of why people die
You’ve never had to face the mirror and lie
You think you own me (you never could)
You think I’m crazy (you haven’t seen shit)
You think you know me (you know only what I want you to)
I’ve seen the hell I’ve created
I’ve never been so baited
You don’t understand the life I’ve led
You should have ensured that I bled
You grabbed for other’s things believing they were yours
Even after every drink the bartender pours
I can’t help but think you’re a narcissist
Who thinks she’s hot and no one can resist?
Your self-hatred could never amass to this
You’ve turned your entire life to piss
I know the you you hid for years
All those hopes and all of those fears
The manipulative bitch, trying to scratch an itch
Soul continues to crush as you push past
It all relative to the bloody die you cast
You should have made sure I was dead
It is so bloody easy to look for red
You think you own me. I would never allow that
You think I’m crazy. That’s fine. I’ll wear that hat
You think you know me. You only know what I want you to
So, in the end my mistake was ever caring about you
