Strings

There was a time when nothing could keep me away

But times have changed, and nothing will make me stay

You took me for a puppet, just stringing me along

In your twisted mind

I could do no right; you could do no wrong

Now my heart is beyond damaged and I don’t know how you managed

To keep me holding on for this long

To an unhealthy love that has put me on my sick bed

I finally got sick of being a ride or die chick for a dickhead

But now I stand firm in my decision

I’m gonna cut you off like circumcision

You played me like a guitar                                

Stringing me along

There I was hoping we’d flow in perfect harmony

But I should have known

That with you it was always going to be a sad love song

I’m tired of being controlled by you like a puppet without a mind of its own

So I’m cutting off the strings

That for so long had me so attached

To a love that only brings insecurity & self-doubt; I need my confidence back

So after years of being kicked about, I’m ending this match

That I was always going to lose

And now you’re going to lose…me.
