My promises are as cheap as my perfume
But, love, I paid for it with my pride
So don’t stick it up my nose, let doom be doom.
…I’ll meet you on the other side
Without your backstabbing smile.
My hopes are as low as my décolletage cuts
And don’t try to convince me that it’s too much
Because two-faced boys dance where everything rots.
I’d suggest we never keep in touch.
I wasn’t the joke but you treated me as such.
My past is as vivid as my lipstick stains
So don’t play with the devil to ease your pain,
Don’t suck me dry just to fill up your veins.
Take your ego down the shallowest of drains –
Or keep your distance, stay in your lane.
