Poetically EC - To Every Failed Attempt Lyrics

To every failed attempt
I got something to say
So listen up
I don't blame you entirely
Although you let your past cloud your judgment
I can understand why
I know it's hard to trust after you've been taken advantage of
Lie after lie
I know it's hard to give yourself to someone else
After the last person said they had your best interest at heart but didn't
I know what it feels like to be cheated on wondering
Why you weren't good enough
I know
I know
I know
But f*ck all that
You came in f*cked up and in the end just f*cked me up
I gave you a piece of me that I can never get back
No return to sender
Oops
I messed up
I was the one left saying what the f*ck
While you blamed your actions on every bitch that did you wrong
You led me on lied and snatched every ounce of self worth
I had leaving me empty
Second guessing became first nature
So I know what it's like to have your heart ripped to pieces
Difference is I f*ckin tried
And you didn't
Even when my heart was barely beating
I held my breath so you could catch yours
I sat down so you could stand tall
I crawled so you could walk
Somehow none of that was good enough
But why not
I guess next time I'll just blame my inability
To love on every failed attempt
Because that seems to be the reoccurring cop out
