You Knew

You had the chance you know
She was falling in love with you
And you knew it
You could have done the right thing
Showed her some real respect
Boy, you blew it

Your selfish want with selfish desire
You let it become your master 
So you gave her false hope
You knew it was wrong to lead her on
Did you make a good choice then
Do you feel good, nope

You knew she was a good one yet
You knew she was not one for you
The first night
Pushing her to get your own way
Knowing it would hurt her badly
It wasn't right

You did what a selfish boy would do
You simply disappeared from her life
To deal with the pain
Too callous to have a simple sit down chat
Too cowardly to witness the shattering
All that would remain

Onward to the next one just another notch
On a very cracked very worn leather belt
Disposable as they all are to you
When you meet your match as someday you will
Then you realize the pain you doled out for years
The law of Karma is true
