It’s [C]times like these wish I had a [E7]time machine, so
[Am]I could see what you did [G]October 13th
At [F]10:15, were you [C]really asleep?
Were you [D]lying to me and the [G]family?


There’s no [C]”us” in us when I’m [E7]lacking trust
You [Am]wanna discuss, ugh [G]You disgust me
Don’t [F]make me cuss you out [C]Why’d you let me down?
[D]Don’t say sorry [G]now


And [C]thanks to you I, [E7]I can’t love right
[Am]I get nice guys and [G]villainize them
[F]Read their texts like they’re [C]having *** right now
[D]Scared I’ll find out [G]that it’s true


And [C]if I do, then [E7]I blame you for
[Am]Every worst that [G]I assume
When I’m [C]forty-five, someone [E7]calls me their wife
And he [Am]fucks our lives in one [G]selfish night
Don’t think I’ll [C]find forgiveness as [C]fast as mom did
And, [D]God, I love you, but you’re [G]such a dipshit
[Fm]Please *** fix this


‘Cause you [C]were all I [G]looked up [Am]to
Now I [Fm]can’t even look at [C]you [Am] [G] [C]
