No, you don't get to say that.

Not that I'll be just another girl

To leave you in her past.

Trust me when I say

I'm not the type to leave you.

***

She probably left because you cheated on her too right?

I won't leave you though.

I'll stay and push through it with you,

Give you another chance.

Believe in the lies

I'll pretend I don't see you being suspect

Or that I didn't just see that flash on your phone.

I won't make a big deal

Yes, my love, I'll still stay.

***

I will be the type to stay

Until you've turned me inside out,

And my world upside down.

I'll stay until I start compromising my values

And moral codes

And doing things out of anger

The before me would never do.

I'll start to fuck up your life.

***

I told you

I won't leave you

Until you have managed to turn me into exactly what you are...

A monster, of your creation.
