Horrible Boss
HORRIBLE BOSS
Why do you treat me, as if I do not even matter,
Why does it not phase you that it’s my heart you have shattered?
You talk to everyone else, as if they mean a thing to you,
But to me it’s like I’m something, you spit out then chewed.
Did anyone ever teach you, about the golden rule?
Treat other unto you, and never be so cruel.
I had it all mapped out, my future carefully planned;
And then you came along, turning my dreams to sinking sand.
Time and time I’ve thought, the tears I carefully hide;
Wondering should I leave, or stay upon this ride.
I never thought I would, meet someone like you;
To take such hurtful comments, and make them all seem true.
You seem to be persistent, on always trying to hurt me;
Telling others lies, which from you, they must believe.
Well let me tell you now, something you must know;
You could never take my career, no matter how you run the show.
My heart has been through plenty, that’s why I am so smart;
I guess you underestimated me, right from the very start.
