You left a note?

You left a note?

That's all I'm worth?

A scrap of paper to dish your dirt.

There's someone else?

I should have guessed.

You never were one for second best.

 

The wardrobe is empty.

Your guitars disappeared.

But you left your toothbrush?

Wow! Now that's weird.

And on the note with a ribbon tie.

You scrawled these words to make me cry.

 

 

"I cheated babe. I have go. I'm sorry. Just wanted you to know."

That scrap of paper.

Should have broken my heart...

Instead...It was my licence for a brand new start.

 

No more men who lie and cheat.

No more love songs left on repeat. 

No more time wasted on users and fools.

From now on...I'll play by my own set of rules.

 

You left a note?

Your last goodbye.

I won't wait around and I'm damned if I'll cry.

You made your choice...It wasn't me.

So thank you baby...You've set me free.

strange...second best has always been me.

 

what kind of a guy leaves a note? was he was scared to face you face to face?

 

It is in my opinion that rules are a necessity and should never be altered for anyone....hmmm...then again... from how or what I have written in the past, I feel I have just contradicted myself... well shit.. nice to be free from unwanted fiasco miss mills... truly is...
