This Time

You put me in his pocket gave it a pat and walked away Stopped and turned around Askin him to keep me safe He asked if you were done You simply smiled and said you'd had your fun A few days passed and you came back Lookin for what you left behind This time you couldn't take what you would find This time I was not in his pocket My heart in his hands This time you could not stop it No matter the plot scheme or scam This time things didn't go according to your plan Now you sit and think about your mistakes Where did you go wrong makin fake apologies Tryin to hold on Doin all the little things That should've already been done I hope you learn the lesson left for you to learn So you may move on Once you've used it up and thrown it away I am threw is what you portray And while it sits there on the curb It may catch the eye of someone new Everyone knows One mans trash Is another mans treasure He will love and cherish it And definitely treat it better than you
