LessThanAMan

I should have seen it coming, I should have freaking known
How could I let you play me, I don't even know
I should have seen it coming down, I guess I should have known
How could I let you play with me, I don't even know

I'm such a fool, I can't believe I let you in my life
You broke the rules but I should have known
You do it all the time

Thought we were cool but then again who am I kidding?
It's every player's favorite crime
To make you feel like it's all real
When it's a LIE and I should have known

I shoud have seen it coming, I should have freaking known
How could I let you play me, I don't even know
I should have seen it coming down, I guess I should have known
How could I let you play with me, I don't even know

I should have known, my family they never did pretend
My mama felt, she never liked you, neither did my friends
And when you blamed it all on me I should have known
That's what LIARS always try to do

It wasn't me, it was you
You're the fool and I should have known

I should have seen it coming, I should have freaking known
How could I let you play me, I don't even know
I should have seen it coming down, I guess I should have known
How could I let you play with me, I don't even know

If your heart was simple just like mine is
Then you would know just how it feels
When someone takes advantage of your kindness
You think you're never gonna heal

If your soul was deep just like mine is
Then you would know not to give up
Keep my faith even through the darkness
Yet I still believe in love, I still believe

*** There is nothing like a BAD MAN to bring a woman back to her senses and snap her back to reality.  Ladies please - DO NOT throw your pearls to swine.  Or even worse - to TRASH!!!  It is so not worth it in the end.  When people show you who or what they are, it is definitely in your best interest to believe them.  Never let another person change who you are or you will end up not recognizing the person you have become.  When you first become aware that you are dealing with a BLACK-HEARTED individual, please use caution. (note I did not say "proceed" with caution)  Step away from the fire.  If you can see the flames or smell the smoke, you.are.too.close.  You will get burned.  Lesson learned.  Cry a river, build a bridge, and get over it.  I've already moved on.
