A Million Chances

"She has no reason,"

Excuse me?

"She shouldn't be upset with him."

Were you there to see

What we went through?

"He's the victim, really.

He did nothing wrong."

No, he did a lot.

I was the one holding strong

To a boy who didn't care enough.

You didn't hear

All the things he said.

You have no idea

The words he filled in my head;

You know nothing.

"But he's so nice to you!"

Because he feels bad.

"No, he still loves you!"

He should have known what he had

Before he gave it all up.

"Give him a second chance."

Not ever again.

"Why not?"

Because that would be inane

When he's had a million.

You weren't there,

You don't know.

What it's like

When a boy doesn't show

Anything that's true.

Walk a mile in my shoes,

Relive that time as me.

Know the truth of what went down

Then you'll really see

Why he's as good as dead.
