Tainted Love

You used to hang onto every word I used to say;
Now you hardly listen, girl tell me what’s changed;
My smile used to turn you on, now you can’t stand the sight of my face;
Something is wrong, things just ain’t the same;

You hardly ever answer my calls, all I get is your stupid voicemail;
You never send me texts no more, when I send tem your way, you never reply;
You adored my love letters and they always made you cry;
Now when I give them to you, you just put it to the side;

You are always too busy to spend time;
And your family started to treat me unkind;
It’s like people around me know you’ve bid out love goodbye;
Whenever I ask, you say it’s all in my mind;

Then tell me why every convo turns into a fight;
And tell me who’s car is always parked outside;
Tell me why you always rush me home when I’m supposed to spend the night;
And tell me why your phone I pay for’s bill is so high;

Tell me who are you calling so much, cause I know you ain’t calling me;
Tell me who calls when I’m around that you need to take the call privately;
You ask me why I’m checking up on you, that I’m acting childish;
Your mother and uncles all cut me from a distance with their eyes in passing;

I feel like I’m in the twilight zone, I don’t want to accuse without proof;
But girl I know the signs of cheating love, it’s something I’ve been through;
Why don’t you just be straight and tell me it’s over between us two;
Why string me along girl, I’ve never done that to you;

Didn’t I always treat you like a queen and there was nothing I wouldn’t do;
Love has changed, something’s got in the way;
I’ve been here before, I’ve been played;
You aren’t the first girl to do me this way;

My whatsapp messages used to get an instant reply;
Now I see those two blue ticks and they make me cry when I can see you’re showing online;
You status says you’re in love with a naughty smile;
In love with who, cause it’s not with me, all we do is f*cking fight;

Your relationship status on Facebook is now single, tell me why?
You say it was your little brother messing around on your profile;
Girl you always have an excuse ready in line;
Tell me what I already know deep inside;

I don’t know what I didn’t do right;
I don’t know when our love was buried alive;
I can’t understand what went wrong no matter how hard I try;
Now Mamma brought me up right;

I can’t go pointing fingers and start to accuse;
I can’t go around playing Sherlock Holmes and try and find out the truth;
I’ll let bygones be bygones and without a word I’ll slide;
When he breaks your heart girl hit me up, I won’t reply;

You can put all the blame on me and make me the bad guy;
You can tell your friends and fam I hurt you and made you cry;
You can shift the blame, that’s what most cheaters do;
I just can’t believe that cheater would turn out to be you.
