After everything we've been through
everything I've been through with you
I never thought you'd say the things you did
now they won't stop running through my head.

You were my first everything, and my all for so long
even once we were done I still loved you with all my heart
and then for you to go after my cousin like you did
how was that not supposed to hurt me all over again?

Why would you talk to my family when we were clearly done
and try to hit on one, and seduce her when time was moving on
when she's not only my family but four years younger than you
why would you do that to me even though we were through?

All I asked was for you not to talk to my family because it's wrong
so you proceeded to tell me how I'm a whore and what a mistake I was
telling me how 'it's all my fault' and 'nothing would ever hurt as much'
but I know something that hurts more, only I'm not letting on.

It doesn't matter if it happened yesterday, or four months ago
the fact is that you did it, it happened and I did not know
because at the end of every day it still hurts me
just as if it only happened yesterday.
