Author's Note: This is the contest entry for 30secondstomarsfan's contest! I don't expect to win because a lot of people entered already and they are really good! Anyways…this is based on the song Every Time You Lie by Demi Lovato. I originally was going to do Only Girl in the World but I had second thoughts because I didn't seem contest worthy.
Enjoy
Now you told me on a Sunday We sat next to the fire
that it wasn't gonna work
I tried to cry myself to sleep
cause it was supposed to hurt
as the flame was burning out
I knew what you were thinking
before you'd say it aloud
Mitch and I have been happily dating for 2 and a half years. One day-a Sunday to be exact- he called me and said it was over. He said he'd explain to me when he came to my house. Before I could protest, my doorbell rang and there he was. I was going to ask him why but then I realized…..he's dumping me for Princess. He was angry I wouldn't have sex with him but he claimed it was no big deal. Princess was a slut and opened her legs for anyone that came passing by.
Don't say you're sorry
cause I'm not even breaking
you're not worth the time that this is taking
The next day at school, Princess flaunted him in front of me on purpose. She'd say loudly to her friends that he was "the one" and they were inseparable. Mitch had told me he was sorry but I knew better…. I knew she was only using him.
I knew better
than to let you break my heart
this soul you'll never see again
won't be showing scars
You still love her
I can see it in your eyes
the truth is all that I can hear
Every time you lie
Every time you lie
It didn't really hurt me at all. Mitch was a player….I knew that. I was only trying to change his ways….I knew we were bound to break up because I don't open my legs to no one. After a week of going out with Princess, he broke up with her. She was too clingy and he found out she was using him. He was heartbroken but he denied it. He called me and said he made a mistake and still loved me. I scoffed and hung up.
I woke up the next morning
with a smile on my face
and a long list of gentlemen
happy to take your place
less trashier much classier
then who you prove to be
How longs it gonna take before you see that she's no me?
The next morning, I looked at my phone and I found out I received a message from Butch, my other best friend. He was cute and funny and I liked him a lot. His text asked if I wanted to go skating with him. I smiled and replied with a yes. I knew Mitch would really regret with dumping me for Princess. I know what Mitch liked in a girl….and it was me. He had told me I was his ideal woman but now…that's all gone.
I knew better
than to let you break my heart
the soul you'll never see again
won't be showing scars
oh no no
You still love her At night, awake So don't say you're sorry
I can see it in your eyes
the truth is all that I can hear
Every time you lie
I will be sleeping till morning breaks
that's the price you pay
for your mistakes
goodbye to dreaming
cause I'm not gonna listen
Mitch sweared that he didn't like Princess anymore. He said he'd be better and he wouldn't make the same mistakes….that was all lie. Bullshit. It was all bullshit so I ignored him and stayed with Butch.
I knew better You still love her Don't say you're sorry The truth is all that I can hear
than to let you break my heart
the soul you'll never see again
won't be showing scars
oh no no
I can see it in your eyes
the truth is all that i can hear
every time you lie
ooh
every time you lie
ooh yeah
don't say you're sorry
oooh
every time you lie
In English I remember making a poem about this experience. It was hard but I pulled through. I look back at this poem now and realized that Butch was always the one for me. When lil' Bailey (our 10 year old girl) is a little older, I'll show her this poem to help a her a little with boys.
BC's Poem:
He lied
I cried
But I was stronger inside
He knew
That he was due
To express his love that he denied.
But it doesn't matter anymore
Because he's still with that whore
And I got my Butchie-boy
That I know I will always enjoy
I placed down the poem and looked at Bailey. I hope she's like me, able to hear the truth every time someone lies.
Me: Pretty good if I do say so myself! Bailey is Butch and Buttercup's daughter when they grow older. Yes, Buttercup was reminiscing the experience….okay so let's cross our fingers and hope I win!
