I Surrender

Why am I always the one to be left in the cold?
The one feeling dumb when you’re exposed because of the lies that you told.
You say you didn't do anything and that’s it only entertainment
And that I am tripping because they are a million miles across the continent
Well let’s define cheating because it seems you don’t understand
Deleting texts, and sexting on fake Facebook pages doesn't make you a man
Telling outsiders things that you don’t even tell me
As I understood a relationship consisted of 2 people not 3
But that’s cool I understand it was just hard for you to say
That you didn't want me just didn't want anyone else to have me because you are selfish that way
So here I go making a decision that you couldn't make on your own so I have to make it for you
I am being the bigger person so I am letting you go so you can do you
Maybe she will believe your deceit and your lies
Because she will be naive when the truth is seen with her own eyes
Maybe she will love and give you everything that you need
Hopefully you will treat her better than me and not allow her heart to bleed
I give up, I am waving the white flag, I admit defeat
Cause fighting for your love is so tiring I can no longer compete.
I fought long and hard, giving it my all through thick and through thin
But now I have to end this so I can give my heart time to mend
The thing that hurts worse is that I have a little person that looks just like you
And I will have to see your face every day even when I don’t want to
I loved you but I can no longer do this because I love myself more
So though it hurts like hell on this chapter of my life I must now close the door
