Another Link

I never meant to hurt you the way that I did
The pain that I caused was caused by the first woman instead
She was the one you wanted while I was second best
Yet you loved me like I was her and I never took interest
Caught between a pinnacle of love and something so much less
You made me feel like I was something
When to you I was just a piece of ass

I know her name I see her soul
I met her, the one you can’t let go
You tried to make me everything she is
You tried so hard yet couldn’t resist
You wanted the life you planned with her
Yet your past is who you were
Your cheating ways won again
Til you die a cheating man

Lara, Loan and Corey just some of many names
A roster, a collection, a heart so full of pain
Anger, resentment, and tears just the same
But a womans love is just a game
You chase, you embrase and replace with no remorse
A bitter resentment and a way to even the score
Your love an illusion, a lie you live
Who are you really? What answer can you give?

I, myself, have felt the pain
The charm of a person lost to shame
The lies of a human so bitter and scorned
A chain reaction I take part no more
I will not pass on your game
The one you live night and day
I will not take part in the angry ways of a broken heart

You say to me again the words you always say
I never meant to hurt you
You never meant to hurt me, but you never meant to stay
You never meant to love me and cause me so much pain
You never had any plans beyond sleeping in my bed
You never had intentions built inside your head
You saw something and couldn’t resist
Your past will forever haunt you
Because your past is who you is

Give up, let go, move on you say
Because you never meant to hurt me this way
You never meant to kill my soul
You never meant to let me go
You tell more lies than you even know
Because your love is still so cold
The pain she caused you returned to me
The love you had you found in me
You spared me from your evil ways
You let me go with lies to my face

A broken promise to her was made
Because you caused me this much pain

A three part action has been done
To me, to her and to your self
I am not the only one to suffer the loss of a loved one
I am a victim in a relationship that never ends
I am a broken heart, a link… continuing the pain
By never letting another get close
Forever pushing men away
Count down how many woman you played

You turned us all into the likeness of you
Great woman changed into chain links spreading your disease
Hurting other great men and adding them to the cause
Leaving generations wondering what you've done
You believe the lies you tell and regret nothing
And now, we follow in your footsteps casting shaddows in the world
Sharing your bitter darkened ways
By aiming for our goal of never being hurt again

We chase men down in the dark of night
We let them in until the light
We embrace them ever so much and let them see our souls
But when feelings begin to emerge
We replace them with new love and let them go
We disappoint so many people who watch our pain grow
You sowed a seed a dangerous seed
But still I just can't let go

A guarded heart with disillusioned hope
Holding on to another day
A friendship led by lies and then just thrown away
You bear false witness to immortal men
You judge those that see
You turn your back in a cold moment
Leaving so much irreversible pain
You left behind so much more than just me

Spreading around the love I lost in a bitter resentful state
Is not the person I choose to be
Yet some how I ended up just the same as you
Of course I think I have it all figured out
Of course I wish to find a way to be free
One day I will stand in front of you and laugh
One day.... you will see... one day you will want me back
And just like you I will say move on my friend
Give up, just let go... I am not a victim anymore!
