The Things I Never Seen

To me it was all his fault,
Nothing was ever mine
I never listened to a thing he said
To me everything was just a whine.

He'd do all he could
Everything he thought of,
Just to get me to smile,
Just to get me to love.

But I only put him down,
Crushed his heart, 
And all I thought he was doing
Was tearing my world apart 

He held me while I cried,
He told me i was pretty,
And out of all the low things I could have done
It was me I wanted him to take pity.

He listened to all my stories
He's done nothing but care
and all I've done was  hurt him
Wherever I was there

I never noticed the things he had done
I never paid attention 
And whenever he tried to make me see,
I only gave him tension.

I thought I loved him more
I thought he was only cruel
But really he was none of that
I was the selfish fool

Who throw away love for just myself
who only wanted to be the nasty queen
But i hope that there's another girl out there, one that could see
The things I never seen
