The Bad Guy
I'm the bad guy again. Not because I want to be. God, I don't want to be. But because it seems like the only right choice. But sometimes the best choice still leaves everyone hurting. So I'm the bad guy again. I'm the villain in your story, a so you can hate me and move on to someone better. Because I couldn't help you when you were hurting. I am a bad guy. Not in the way that I treat people bad. You see, I loved you and it hurt me when your situation was so bad. And even though the cause wasn't out of your control, You refused to accept the help of another soul. When I told you we couldn't last and you lashed out, I accepted being the bad guy, and I hid away my doubt. And when we made up, I apologized for the way that things had been. And then you started pushing us back to that moral line again... Now you're probably laying with him and hating me again. While I'm here crying and hating myself for hurting my closest friend. Because I'm the bad guy I've always hated. I really wish it wasn't true. And I hope one day you'll understand that I always cared about you, Moo.
