Was it because I'm fat
Or "Slightly over weight"
Because I wouldn't exercise
Is that what you hate
Was it because I'm ugly
And have to wear make up to look decent
You said you thought I was beautiful
But is that what you really meant
Was it because of my hair
That didn't always work right
Because sometimes it'd become unfixable
When I slept on it at night
Was it because I'm short
And had to stand on tip toes just to kiss you
Well let me tell you, that for a guy
You were pretty short too
Was it because I was boring
And didn't always want to "have fun"
You knew I wasn't ready for the actual thing
Though I was sure you were the one
Was it because I fell a lot
And acted embarrassing to you
We both did crazy things
And you embarrassed me too
Was it because I'm a freak
And sing songs really loud
You had once said you liked it
And you even acted proud
Was it because I cried sometimes
When I thought that things were bad
Was that something you couldn't handle
Me feeling a bit sad
Was it because I had a few friends
That I was with a lot
And when I was supposed to call you
I sometimes just forgot
Was it because I'm three years younger
Than what you are today
Because age never mattered before
You said that every day
Was it because I wasn't good enough
Your standards couldn't be reached
Or maybe you didn't like my hair
When part of it was bleached
Was it because of who I am?
It's time I finally see
That the problem was always you
It was never me
Or "Slightly over weight"
Because I wouldn't exercise
Is that what you hate
Was it because I'm ugly
And have to wear make up to look decent
You said you thought I was beautiful
But is that what you really meant
Was it because of my hair
That didn't always work right
Because sometimes it'd become unfixable
When I slept on it at night
Was it because I'm short
And had to stand on tip toes just to kiss you
Well let me tell you, that for a guy
You were pretty short too
Was it because I was boring
And didn't always want to "have fun"
You knew I wasn't ready for the actual thing
Though I was sure you were the one
Was it because I fell a lot
And acted embarrassing to you
We both did crazy things
And you embarrassed me too
Was it because I'm a freak
And sing songs really loud

Author notes
It's been a super long time since I wrote.. And a lot has happened. I figured it was time to write something again.. And this is something that I've been thinking about writing for a couple months. I finally got it all put together.. So here it is.
