You Told Me So

You Told Me So I remember you told me that relationships that start with a spark, Always ends dim with a vivid light. Why am I the one to experience this painful sight? At first it was a joke, the reality of it feels like Being stabbed in the stomach and saying "it will be okay" You Told me so Like a moth being too close to the light Killed by that which you cherished most. It was said that life is not fair This is not just a saying, there's a meaning to it You told me so In order to survive in life you need to give in half of you And not even expect a thank you. My ignorant mind was too proud to believe Until my naked eyes begged to be covered for relief What I've seen is inevitably strange to the mind You told me so "She's just a girl, what does she know?" Mind of an ignorant man. I've realised being male doesn't make you tough Admitting to reality and facing facts is more manly Than a bearded man lifting 80 pound weights in gym I feel like rewinding my life to where we first met So I could undo all the things you told me not to do Now that it's too late, only do I realise But I'm not ashamed to say YOU TOLD ME SO.
