Becca Schack - The Story lyrics

Think you're peter pan? Where you stand sleazy old man Narcissist with a god complex Insecure and self-obsessed, yes Everyone knows that I'm the best So why were you ever my first request Now i only talk to people who care I learned the hard way, life just ain't fair I was deep in it, was so intense But now that I know, it all makes sense Forgot who I was, even my own name You fronted like my boss, that sh** was lame All that was mine soon became yours til I couldn't take the fakeness anymore I swear I'll never let that happen again I only live in truth, won't play pretend I believed the story, not the reality Poisoning myself in the shadow of your glory I was just the girlfriend, a toy that you would bend Gotta break the news, all good things must end Now you try to be nice But my heart is cold, cold as ice Don't fool yourself that we can be friends Shoulda thought of that before you took seconds I lived in a bubble for years You took me for granted, played on my fears Exploited me, all you could Lies became truth, but it was all good Remember all the times, the times you said That you loved me, really messed with my head You wrote it on my walls, screamed it in the streets Whispered it to me from between the sheets In the meantime you were weaving stories so complex Another notch on your belt then onto the next All the pictures now burned, graffiti erased Blows my mind all that time, it was me you couldn't face I believed the story, not the reality Poisoning myself in the shadow of your glory I was just the girlfriend, a toy that you would bend Gotta break the news, all good things must end You need constant rea**urance to feel s**y Too bad I took you back after it got messy Silly me, thinkin that you could ever change Instead it was my own I had to rearrange I believed the story, not the reality Poisoning myself in the shadow of your glory I was just the girlfriend, a toy that you would bend Gotta break the news, all good things must end I got only you to thank when you kissed me goodbye Naive little girl when you opened my eyes I complete myself, not you or any guy Don't need anyone else to be justified With open heart open mind I really can't hate No enemies only teachers never too late to have the life I always dreamed, watch and see what I create Master of my future, I was born for something great I've got only you to thank for opening up my eyes I don't need anyone, no no and I've only got you to thank for opening up my eyes I don't need anyone, no no
