Previously Ate by Melodie Yvonne Ramey
You’ve made me feel much less than worthless
For all I did you’ve made me useless
Your fake love’s what’s kept me going
But now all your lies are showing
And I just don’t care to see them
I don’t wanna meet your demons
I don’t wanna meet more faces
Or help you train my replacement
I just wanted you to love me
But your love goes on without me
I just wanted you to see me
But you don’t want me to be me
What am I supposed to do when I can’t keep my mind off you?
How the heck will I move on when all the hope you gave me’s gone?
You’ve still got all of your heart left
Still you tore mine out with one rip
You done moved to someone else
But tried to keep me on your shelf
Well I done found some self-respect
A place that you’d have never guessed
I found it deep inside myself
And now I’m done with all your “help”
What am I supposed to do when I can’t keep my mind off you?
How the heck will I move on when all the hope you gave me’s gone?
Well I done answered my own question
I’m the horse you always bet on
‘Cause I’ll wallow for a while
But stayin’ down is not my style
You might think that I still need you
And might think that I’ll be back too
But that means you never knew me
And I’m done lettin’ you use me
What am I supposed to do when I can’t keep my mind off you?
How the heck will I move on when all the hope you gave me’s gone?
Well I know what I’m supposed to do when I can’t keep my mind off you
I know how I can move along I’ll just keep singing me this song
I know what I’m supposed to do to keep my wallowin’ mind off you
I know how I can move along I’ll just keep singing me this song
‘Cause all I need’s me and my songs
