Eyes Wide Open

With eyes wide open
I experienced the reality of who you are
how did i view you as anything other than what you are
a person with all the imperfections that i somehow glorified

You caused me so much pain
i doubted myself for so long because of you
counted the days til your return
and spent so much money to help you so that you would see how unselfish i was

earlier this week, you waltzed back into my life
demanding an explanation from me
but all you offered was bad breath, bad hair, and a completely bad attitude
which made it so easy for me to tell you to fuck off

why would i want an immature little boy
when i have a mature man
who loves me for all that i am
and all that i'm not

one who would never cause me to shed the mountain of tears i cried for you
just think, this time last year, you ruined my thanksgiving
with no after thought, you were concerned with other girls
not realizing that you held a treasure chest in your arms

with eyes wide open
i face the fact that you were using me
one day, you'll sit all alone
and wonder why the greatest treausre you ever held slipped right through your fingers, and now that you want to regain what you've lost, it's too late
