That day was just wonderful, a near-perfect night in June
When we tied the knot and held hands under the full moon
Now we cry a lot and throw hands, making each other swoon
A day bright and sunny, secretly disguising years of monsoon
The first few months gave me false hopes for a monster
But then moods started shifting, almost thought I lost her
It began to unfurl, a prescription of unwanted torture
Narrating tales of regrets like a dying man’s concert
You’re always a victim; I’m always second-guessing myself
Mutual mistakes don’t exist; Only I’m responsible for ourselves
Twisting narratives, stories contorting onto themselves
Fucked up, ain’t it? How you’ve made my life a living hell
One such story of a day of her presumptuous ‘virtue’
‘You don’t like me’s, ‘don’t love me’s, as if I speak untrue
Acting as if my world revolves around to just hurt you
Water’s overbridge, I’m leaving, I just don’t love you
Let me go out now, hell, where are my keys?
Leave my hand, girl, or get kicked by my heels
These tears don’t matter now; I don’t even believe
Everything that I do for you to make you succeed
No good deed goes unpunished, no, not even me
Can get you out of the choices that you call misery
My dream life and dream wife crumbling in front of me
Thought I deserved the world, but you didn’t deserve me
Calling the cops, are we? Well, let them see first-hand
How a grown-ass woman is implicating her husband
With fake marks and fake bruises, stories unplanned
Tries to hit so much, her compliments are backhand
Wait, what was that? Did I hear sobbing?
Did you finally realise that you were toxic
Did you see your face in the mirror and got sick
Don’t even care, keep bawling till the clocks tick
This cycle repeats so much I almost call it a chorus
More addicting than any drug or pill I took before us
What’s crazy is you don't realise what actually tore us
I’ll end it for good with hearts heavier than tyrannosaurus
