Stupid
Here I sit all alone
There you are with him and the feelings between you can no longer grow
For now you may have him to somewhat hold
But it's time to face it and let the truth be told
All you long for is to be in control
What do you believe he sees when and if he looks into your eyes
Is it love or is he starring down someone he has silently come to dispise?
Is what he's supposed to feel for you real or all pretend?
Is it true love or more like distant friends?
Why don't you just stop struggling and let it all come to an end?
He deserves so much more than all you do
And deep down even I know you deserve that to
He needs love and support in which he don't receive from you
He wants truth and honesty you have failed him in that area too
He longs to be honored for the man he is a man who don't need to be in any way tamed
He should know with no words spoken he never needs to change
He can't clearly see what you're doing to him so for the moment you is who he will not blame
But when it comes to me your luck has run out
You are not really in love with him nor he you this I have no doubt
You may really believe that for him you do so much
When all it's really doing to him is making him lose touch
You make him feel so week if and when things go wrong
When I know all to damn well he is so strong
So open your eyes wider look around and see
I can fill all of his wants and needs like you would never believe
He belongs with me
You can close your eyes and hope, dream, and pray
But I'm here to tell you when your eyes open it will not always be okay
You can't push all this down and I'm not going away
Does his memory of me nag you every single day
Good for what you do to him I hope it eats at you in every single way
There's one more thing I need to say
While you continue to try and change him into the man you want him to be
Remember deep inside he still really wants to be with me
You and him come on you two were never meant to be
He confided in me deeply but with you sincerity is so rare
Leaving you to wonder how much does he in us really care
But I'm telling you bluntly and all up front putting the truth all out there
There's no match made in heaven between you two no part was played by cupid
From where I stand YOU are the one who's being stupid
