Disappointment

I never knew three simple words could hurt so much
I can’t make myself believe this was more than just a crush
They tried so hard to talk me out of loving you
And now I realize you were too good to be true
Haven’t I learned anything from my past life lessons?
You better believe I’m through with taking chances
These are the times when I wish I could disappear
Right now I feel just like Queen Guinevere

Do you believe in luck? Cause I have the worst
I’m always falling too fast, always getting hurt
I’m old enough to know that fairytales don’t exist
When things seem to be going right, there’s gonna be a twist
I always lose in the bittersweet game of love
Who’d have though something so sweet could be so rough?
I knew it was coming, I should have seen it
Oh, how I hate the sting of disappointment

So perfect, you’re a heartbreak just waiting to happen
But you’re so smooth, I can’t keep myself from fallin’
We both know this will only end in disaster
Like a little girl falling with no one to catch her
They all say it’s better to have loved and lost
But living with a broken heart is such a high cost
I just have to ask myself if this is all worth the price I pay
And at the end of the day I always have to pretend that I’m Ok
