The Other Way

Darling, oh darling
It's 3 in the morning and i know how you feel
Please, let go of your phone
Flush it
Or smash it
Who cares if he ever calls?
If it was important to him, he would be an idiot to make you wait
Lay down, turn the lights off
Sweetheart,
It's killing me to sit here and hold your hair back as you vomit in attempt to empty the vodka from your body
He shouldn't be making you feel this helpless
You surely can't fix him
And drinking away your problems isn't helping either
When he finally comes running, walk...
The other way
Smile at him, and show him that he's worthless to you
I promise you darling, that will break his heart harder and quicker than you ever broke yours
Don't wreck yourself over a wreck like him
