I Used to Be the One

I USED TO BE THE ONE
words and music by Shellen Lubin

I used to be the one whose heart got trampled
When somebody was carelessly cruel
I used to be the one who held on too long
And let somebody play her for a fool

I know how it feels to be tossed aside
I've been thoughtlessly tossed before
So please believe me when I tell you I've tried
But I can't anymore

I used to be the one whose feelings were forgotten
When someone was so easily untrue
But this time it's me who has to be
The one to do it to you

I know how it feels to be tossed aside
I've been thoughtlessly tossed before
So please believe me when I tell you I've tried
But I can't anymore
I can't anymore

I used to be the one who'd beat up on her pillow
And stayed up all those long dark nights to cry
So I know how painful this has got to be for you
And it hurts me deep inside but what else can I do
And I don't say it carelessly
Or thoughtlessly
Or easily
Good-bye
I'm sorry
Good-bye
