I Need Some New Love Tires

I keep driving around 
And am bound
To encounter some flats
From some cheating Jeremy's, Brad's and Matt's

I really liked this guy
But all he ever did was make me cry
He refused to love me
When his love was all I could see
I wanted him to be true
And he would always make me blue
And the things he would do
Would show me he had someone new
He wouldn't treat me the same
And to jealousy I was in pain
It would bore into my heart
All because I was way too smart
The lies he would say
Wouldn't make the truth go away
As weird as it is to say
I'd find myself loving him another day
My heart's love couldn't be sent away
Even though, to the fool I'd often play
And one day the pain would bear fruit and I would pay
One day it will all become too much
And his  love wouldn't be my crutch
I'd fall off that altar of love
And all the foolish fantasies from above
I'd look myself dead in the eye
And decide I need to find a new guy
And the cycle would begin once more...
With some new love, that I feel I adore
Maybe I will tell him that I love him more
Than the one before
But in the end...
It does not matter who I befriend
The pain is all the same
A different guy
But the same old lie...
Maybe my heart needs a few tires
It has blown a flat from all of these liars
Maybe if I get a new set
I'll be able to go a few more miles, I'll bet
A few more guys
A few more tries
But hopefully not so many liars
That consume my heart by cheating fires!
