To David

You broke 4 hearts instead of just one
Mine, Dylan's, Alexis' and your son's
Love must come so easily to you
To so many broken and used

"Let's get back to the people we once were
But can you remember, it is all one big blur
"It hurts me too," so you say
You seem to forget all in one day

It's to hard and you don't want to try anymore
There you go running for the door
You say your not like your father in anyway
But, when you look in the mirror, it is him that looks away

It is me that has changed so much
But, I am here crying for you touch
All the broken promises that never came true
At least now, I can see straight through you

All the lies, the words spoke so dear
Leaves nothing but a deafen tone in my ear
I gave you what everone is looking for
Unconditional love you left at the door

You will never have love like mine twice
That kind of luck is never with the roll of the dice
When you find yourself alone and cold
I will still be shining bright and bold

My love will always stay true
But never again, be all about you
So have fun living life to the most
I will raise my glass and make a toast

To the biggest fool life has shown to me
Beacause he is so selfish and conceited I see
He will always be alone
Because all he thinks about is ME, ME, ME
