The subtle undertones of dissatisfaction
hit me.
Obvious, and yet, so unpredictable is your reaction
(Curse me. Do it. You know you'd love to).

I wish I knew why your reaction meant so much to me.
Even after all these years your love still hurts
still reminds me what I owe you.

I'm now eighth place in your heart.
My own fault, and it hurts.
