If you listen carefully, you’ll understand exactly what to do.
If you don’t, then you won’t be able to better me.

First, take advantage of my pure naiveness
use it against me so you can take complete control of my heart.

Make a mockery of my innocence,

to let the world know that I love you more than you love me.

Notify me as often as you can,

that I’m lucky to be with someone that people respect.

Even though your friends check for me

you constantly say they only checking for me because of one thing.

Whisper kind thoughts in her ear, while I watch from a distance.
Matter of fact, speak of how you and me are nothing more and nothing less so she can laugh.

Must be some funny ass joke.

I’ll laugh too because the fact he has her dangling from his little thread of lies and fake love will chuckle me too.

I’ll move to step two if I were you.
You might create the perfect me or destroy me.

This part is tricky, it has to be the most difficult to deal with.

As you are continuing to break me, pick a friend.

 

Any friend you choose.

Throw it in my face that you can get anyone you want,

even someone close to me.
Choose the time when my life is in complete shambles to leave.

Let me stand outside lookin for you to let me in.

Matter of fact, be smart and lock me out.
Leave me where I am while you laugh and point.

Tell strangers how I’ll do anything you say

and it’s only one call away.

Alter me into the woman men will fear to speak to

Make me build walls so strong no one can break

I hope you are a good listener

because if you fuck up, it’ll be all bad.

Here’s the last step.

The other steps mattered, but this is crucial.

I want you to take the only thing that made me pure

And platform it to the world.

Something was knocking and yelling

No hunny don’t he’s going to ruin yo soul

but I didn’t listen.

Every stroke you took were warning signals

that got stronger and stronger, but I refused to take caution.

After you done throw me out in the cold

let me figure out how I’m going to get home.

I could’ve gotten a ride, but I decided to hike.

Every step was a reminder.
Every breath mattered.

Because at this moment,

I knew it was the beginning of disaster.

Now that girl is cold inside and out.
More confident, but also more insecure.

Every man doesn’t stand a chance,

not even if they had probable cause.

They met her at her downfall.

You follow through step by step?
Did you make any mistakes?
If you followed directions, then it’s clear to say.

You made the devil herself and you’re the one to blame.
