Dakota

I saw your boyfriend yesterday, he looked at me with the same face
Feels like I’m 17 again I guess not much has even changed since we were back in highschool, talking everyday
Does he still tell you ‘I’ll be sorry’ if I ever even look your way?

Hey Dakota you can piss right off!
You’ll keep your hands to yourself and remove my name from your mouth
Hey Dakota why are you so scared?
Because we both know that you hate me so why don’t you tell someone who cares?

How do you stand back and take it?
The cheating, lies and the abuse
Like a punching bag, you won't fight back (tell me what’s your best excuse)
“Wipe those tears away” so many times I told her
But I’m here to hold your hand while you’re crying on my shoulder
I’ve lost all faith in this, because he’s never changing
I tried to tell you girl, but you never listened

You’d be better off on your own, I think you know (I’ll say it again)

You’d be better off on your own, but if you ever need I’ll always be here
