a hot summer’s sunday evening
I'm thinking about my life,
and how I sucked on my former relationships.
indeed I was a fool
for trying to love
and be loved back

after you, I invested in trying on behaviours
holding hands and exchanging kisses
when I had to, I cried 
letting the colours of my makeup flow deep into me
so nobody could see
the pain
and I said to myself
faker
sucker
heartbreaker

we 
tried on nothing 
but you tried to trick love
and me 
by making me believe in you

talking about broken hearts and crying is bullshit
if you haven't experienced an irregular heartbeat
or trembling under a summer sun.
