He used to make my heart jump
he filled me with fear and surprise
his touch was electrifying
his smile gave me butterflies
but then it happened to me
like so many before
I was foolish to think it would be different
I thought you were so much more
when you said that you needed me
I thought it was true
but in your eyes I'm replaceable
something old, something used
you told me you would stay with me
even when times got tough
but when you had to face it
my happiness wasn't enough
you're good at giving me hope
and then tearing me apart
I wish I hadn't met you
you aren't worth this hole in my heart

I fell in love with my best friend, and I found out he was a different person then I thought he was.
