Lancaster

You wanted to take off and

Never touchdown again

When the night came to an end

You were spinning around

Thinking it was him


All you ever wanted was to be loved

You told me it didn’t hurt when your ex-boyfriend said you were too much

I don’t know why he called you that when I know it cut you up


All you ever wanted was to be needed

You told me it didn’t hurt when his best friend said he was embarrassed to

Be seen with you in public but I know it cut you up


Which is more important; which will treat you better

Are you looking for an honest answer?


He wasn’t what you fell for, it was his lies


He plans on leaving the second that it’s over


And as for the boy that you met near the park,

Don’t you find it suspicious

That he’ll only ever meet you when it's dark?


You wanted to take off and

Never touchdown again

When the night came to an end

You were sitting around

Crying over him


At your age, the feeling is like nothing else

A boat crafted to be drowned

A promise made to be broken

Boys who may never understand

That they ruined something that never got to begin

That they damaged someone who barely had a chance
