Your Side Chick

I don't know why I keep having these thoughts,

I keep thinking about what we had and how much it had crossed.

I used to worship every moment of the life that we would plan,

I gave my heart and my time in this relationship, man.

You're fooling yourself if you think you're getting the best of what you see,

Your side chick will never be the exact same person as me.

It turned out this whole thing was built on a lie,

I'm exhausted from giving this relationship a try.

You never wanted me here,

And I wasted too much time shedding a tear.

I finally see what was happening and where this is going,

Your true colors are finally showing.

You had many chances to make things right,

But now I'm stepping out into my light.

You can keep your lies, I am done with this,

You're nothing to me, you won't be missed.

I'm not wasting my good energy on this situation anymore,

I'm taking my things and I'm walking out the door.

Remember how we swore we'd always stay and stick together,

And how we promised we wouldn't hurt one another.

You clearly never cared what this was going to cost for them,

What's the point of you playing with people's hearts if you're just going to hurt them?

You're not worth the effort, the stress, or the fight,

And you certainly aren't worth giving up on my light.

[Pre-Chorus] (Repeat)

You never wanted me here,

And I wasted too much time shedding a tear.

I finally see what was happening and where this is going,

Your true colors are finally showing.

[Chorus] (Repeat)

You had many chances to make things right,

But now I'm stepping out into my light.

You can keep your lies, I am done with this,

You're nothing to me, you won't be missed.

I'm not wasting my good energy on this situation anymore,

I'm taking my things and I'm walking out the door.

I'm no longer taking your knife,

You can no longer hurt me,

I left all those worries and fears behind me in the dust,

I'm out the door and I'm finally free.

My future that I built is my own trust,

I'm stepping into my new peaceful life.

You can keep your lies, I am done with this,

You're nothing to me, you won't be missed.

(Slow)

Wait...

Do you think you could continue to play with my heart?

(Song ends/fades to silence)
