When It Ends

Stupid girl, you should've known better

With each step you pushed different levers

Just to find less than a even a full reason to hope

Just to hold on for moment and find a way to cope

And you should've known better than to think otherwise

He told you quite clearly how he sees you through his eyes

And yet you still fight and hold on to each moment

Of momentary light and care and focus

And you understand it's a useless effort

Yet each moment you try to do better

Better how? You're not sure

But maybe it could change your future

Stupid girl, you're so niave

You should've always known he'd leave

Why you didn't prepare, I'm quite unsure

Maybe you thought the intention was pure

Maybe you hoped to be enough this time

Instead of just another chapter in someone's life.

You can't make it make sense and you don't have to

Just follow his lead and take the cues

If you're talking, shut up

If you're crying just stop

If you're depressed turn it off

You're not worthy of love

I don't understand how you could ever believe

That it doesn't matter, he's still going to leave

Despite even the one drop of hope

You're just a stupid girl trying to cope

Face reality and fall in line

Understand he doesn't want you in his life

Not in the way you want him in yours

Or even how you wished it could've been before

Stupid girl, don't you know, you're not worth the time

You'll pick yourself up and won't show a sign

You'll laugh and you'll smile but it's all pretend

You know no one will stay til the end

It's time to learn to face the world alone

Even if it shatters you to let some things go

Meant to be a book, not just a chapter

Stupid girl, you were never really what he was after
