'So I'll Never Go Back There Again' by Ravyn LaRue


Hey pretty-
He says as if it meant something
Hey pretty-
He says as if it were my only salvation
Hey pretty-
He says as if I don't already believe it
Hey pretty-
He says as if it would coax me to give him money
Hey pretty-
He says as if I hadn't already heard his incessant pleas
Hey pretty-
He says as if it were the most remarkable thing I would ever hear
Hey pretty-
He says as if it does me any good
Hey pretty-
He says as if he were kind
Hey pretty-
He says as if I'd never been called such before
Hey pretty-
He says as if it were some great favor he had to offer
Hey pretty-
He says as if he were somehow sacrificing his pride
Hey pretty-
He says as if I would actually buy him dinner
Hey pretty-
He says as if I actually had something to give
Hey pretty-
He says as if chivalry was a good thing
Hey pretty-
He says as if my life depended upon it
Hey pretty-
He says as if it meant the world
Hey pretty-
He says as if I weren't my own
Hey pretty-
He says as if my worth were determined by how he sized me up
Hey pretty-
He says as if it weren't an insult
Hey pretty-
He says as if that was all I could ever be
Hey pretty-
He says.
