The Ex Files: Chris



  • Destroyed
    You told me you loved me
    You told me you'd never leave
    You said I was a gem
    You said I was your best friend
    You called me beautiful
    You called me your miracle
    But our relationship died
    Now everything you said is lies
    Only you and I know the truth
    We tell friends otherwise to be cruel
    But I want everyone to know how much you loved me
    I want everyone to know we were meant to be
    You lie about your feelings now
    Because it doesn't make you feel like such a clown
    Guilt destroyed us
    It still haunts us
    Mine was deceiving
    Yours was insecurity
    If I was your angel, Chris
    Then why did things turn out like this?


  • Merry-Go-Round
    Seeing you again
    Is like stepping into fire
    You look at me with familliar eyes
    And I feel like such a liar
    I'm obviously not over you
    Why else would I feel this way?
    With every glance I cast in your direction
    Memories of us turn me into clay
    Helpless in your hands
    You can mold me however you like
    You make my heart heavy with regret and longing
    While I'm spun into our past of passion and fights
    You open the scars with your nonchalance
    You give me home with each smile
    Part of you tells me it's still yesterday
    The other part tells me it's been to long of a while
    I dread having to face you
    Yet at the same time I look forward to it
    You still admire my beauty from afar
    I still dream about you more than I'd like to admit
    Our love was blind
    But you were mine
    Why didn't I realize the love I wanted I had already found?
    Now this tragedy will never let me off of your merry-go-round


  • Unforgiven
    I'm happy
    Without you in my life
    I've finally got past you and your controlling nature
    That took over 3 months of my life
    I've been with other guys since you
    I realize that you're not a part of my life anymore
    Yet when your sister talks about you or I happen to drive down your street
    My heart gets a little sore
    But I don't let it get to me
    Because I know I don't get to you
    I'm living my life free from your chains
    I'm partying, I'm singing, and I'm laughing without you
    You couldn't take advantage of me again no matter how hard you tried
    Cuz I'm all grown-up and you made me learn the hard way
    If you actually let me talk to you in the future
    I'd have absolutely nothing to say
    I'm not sorry anymore
    You were the biggest dissappointment of my life
    I'll never forgive you
    For making me pick up that knife
    I lost all that blood because of you
    I wanted you to see what you had done to me
    Yet I kept it a secret after all that
    You'd probably be pleased
    You made me believe you loved me
    But you probably could have cared less
    The truth of the matter is that you took advantage of a troubled little girl
    And basically used her for sex
    It was just a fleeting summer "love"
    You used me like I was a goddamn doll
    What would the sister who defends you so
    Think of it all?
    It still makes me sad that you turned out to be such a prick
    You seemed so perfect in the beginning
    I wish I'd never met you sometimes
    But then I remember my life is only just beginning


  • Chris
    Once upon a time there was a boy named Chris
    Who lived in a house that smelled of cat piss
    His nights were spent drinking and smoking pot
    With the few 4 friends he got
    19 years old, having sleepovers with guys
    Made his girlfriend kinda wonder why
    Chris loved to make her wait
    By picking her up 2 hours too late
    Everything he guaranteed
    She never expected to see
    Chris put her on hold for his boyfriends and videogames
    And every time the story was always the same
    "I overslept", "I was at school"
    Kinda funny when school's out for summer, you fool
    Perhaps Chris had a girl on the side
    Since he broke every promise
    She was certain he could lie
    But his girlfriend refused to see his faults
    Since Chris usually made her believe their fights were her fault
    He'd hold her close and tell her she was so beautiful
    But his girlfriend began to think it was just a line of bull
    Chris always had to be the master in bed
    He soon began forgetting to ask if she even wanted to have sex
    All this treatment was hurting inside
    But she couldn't even trust him to confide
    Chris pushed his girlfriend away
    And promised she wasn't to blame
    It was only supposed to be a couple days
    But of course he made her wait
    She grew lonely
    Then another boy treated her lovely
    She made a little mistake
    But she was honest with Chris, for heaven's sake!
    All she did was play a game
    The boy begged for her number and she said okay
    That's not a crime
    But Chris wanted her to suffer and do her time
    So he stabbed her in the back
    Dumped her over the phone and said he'd never come back
    He claimed he was the victim
    So she gave him the real deal-
    She killed him.
    (NOTE: I did not kill Chris, my ex--I kinda wish I did, but I didn't- it was just a joke for the poem, so no one FREAK out on me, kk?)


  • If
    If I could bring you back
    I would
    If I would be your perfect girl
    I could
    If you gave me another chance
    I'd take it
    If a promise meant everything
    I'd make it
    If someone could give you the world
    It would be me
    If you're looking for someone to understand
    Let it be me
    If I had to travel to hell and back
    I'd do it
    If that's what it took to forgive me
    I'd insist it
    If I could change the past
    I'd fix the mistakes
    If you were here right now
    I'd do whatever it takes
    If I could kiss you right now
    You'd slip into complete peace
    If I could hold you right now
    You'd never want to leave
    If I could bring you back
    I would
    If I would be your perfect girl
    I could
    If you said no
    I'd cry
    If I had the chance
    I'd try and try

  • No Name
    The smallest reminder
    Drives me insane
    In one single moment
    Memories of you flood through my veins
    I pick up the phone
    Holding back tears
    Dialing your still-so-familliar number
    I try to face my fears
    With each ring
    I realize more and more I can't talk to you
    With each sob
    I realize this is not the right thing to do
    Your sister finally picks up
    I hang up in shame
    I've become just another caller
    Unidentified because there's no longer any importance behind my name


  • Untitled #2
    To die is to live
    I've learned to shift
    The road is long
    And everything feels wrong
    I'm lost without a companion
    My heart is an empty canyon
    I'm covered with scars inflicted by your love
    And the passion that just was never enough
    You crushed my dreams
    You silenced my screams
    Took my life away
    Never listened to a word I had to say
    I begged you not to leave
    Now I hate the way you breathe



  • Cheat
    You make me cry
    More than anyone ever has
    I cut myself so much
    Because you make me think we'll never last
    I'm under so much pressure
    I'm always to blame
    Everything is going wrong
    I just couldn't take the pain
    Losing my sanity and self-respect
    Just to ease my loneliness
    Now you're being immature
    As a result of my foolishness
    Since I made my mistake
    You don't want to really solve anything
    Instead you rub salt in my wounds
    And don't understand how much it weakens me
    You know I'm unstable
    Are you trying to push me over the edge?
    By making me feel like I don't deserve to live?
    Cuz one foot is already over the ledge
    I know and believe what I did was wrong
    But I'm an extreme case
    I'm fragile as a baby
    And more tormented than a headcase
    I'm not like all of the other girls
    And you know those rules don't apply to me
    I deserve another chance
    Before you leave
    You've ultimately treated me the best
    But you've ultimately treated me the worst
    I can't handle this contempt
    Or this curse
    I haven't told you that I love you
    Because you don't deserve to know
    You should be counting your blessings
    When he asked I did say no
    I suppose at the moment you're too consumed with being the victim to realize it
    But you're making me feel like a fucking no good cheat
    And I hope you know by continuing that
    Will cause me and death to meet


  • My Instituion
    I don't love you
    Until you're taken away
    Even with all my defenses down
    I can't find the words I want to say
    It's so hard to express what I feel
    Everyone seems to ignore my silent pleas
    If I let you into my secret world
    I'm afraid you wouldn't like what you see
    They invade my mind
    And poke around for a solution
    There are reasons that I am who I am
    And anyone who tries to interfere will end up in my institution


  • Bittersweet
    Sharp edges and blurred images
    Offer the same dizziness and detail that you are in me
    Melting beneath your hands
    As the moon falls to dream
    Gleaming in your bittersweet eyes
    Is everything I desire
    Our nerves and insecurity disappear
    Into a milky dream
    Of heat, sweat, and fire
    Little trinkets jingle in the background
    Locks of hair fall in your face
    And raven strands hide your eyes
    Then I brush them away with grace
    Your hands explore my skin
    Your moist lips meet mine
    I wrap my arms around you tightly
    And thank God that you're mine


  • He
    I'm not who you want me to be
    Because I can't escape from him
    But please don't leave
    Because I love the way you grin
    He haunts me in my dreams
    But you treat me better than he ever did
    You kiss at my screams
    But the memory of him is impossible to rid
    I'm sorry
    Please understand
    I want to be with you
    But he won't let go of my hand
