I love this song, and I really wanted to write something that was simply anti-Niley. The song is by Jimmy Wayne, but I distorted the meaning a little in Nick's favor. I hope you don't mind. This is going to be more thought process/verse than actual story, which is new for me. Let's see how it turns out.
Do You Believe Me Now?
-
We're both celebrities
We'd have to attend an event together sometime
I knew that
But by the look on your face, You didn't
I'm just one of those ghosts from your past that just happened to pop up
That's funny, because not long ago I was the one whose arm you clung too
But now, who are you clinging to?
Oh, yes
Jake Ryan
I predicted that didn't I?
I knew you were a hopeless flirt
But I also knew how much he meant to you before
Silly me, I thought I meant more
I can see in your eyes that you're not happy
Has he already broken that festering sore you call a heart?
I can't say I'm sorry
You deserve it
After leaving me like that
You look sorry you left me now
I'm not
I can tell when you see the sparkling diamond on her hand
You must have been thinking that at least I was worse off than you
Your face drops when you realize that I'm not
I have a bright future with her
We're already talking about kids
That could have been you you know
We used to be in love
Then he came along
And I was out of the picture
You'd told me it'd never happen
I was going crazy you'd said
But I knew…
Do you believe me now?
That was awfully short, but I think that's how it works. Maybe now I can write something worthwhile, like updating Freedom. We'll see. Please review!
