(Verse 1)
You used to tell me
"I'll never lie to you."
But she was too tempting
And now, you can't speak the truth.
When you said you love me,
I knew who you thought of
So I suck it up and let it be
And now I say "Tough, love."
(Chorus)
You can have her all you want
Just to let you know, you're caught
So go away and let me be
By myself is how I'll live.
I'll never forget or forgive
I used to think you were the one
But you were only tough love.
(Verse 2)
I hope you're happy with your life
Cuz mine is going great
You went away with all my strife
And now it's too late
For you to come find me
I'm sorry you can't see
I've lost all trust

This is incredible. You've summed up the feelings of a woman scorned perfectly. And remember hell hath no fury that can compare to those emotions and feelings!

It works.
It certainly does flow, and this is certainly the smarter choice should something like this actually happen. -
