If You’re Too Blind to See…
If you’re too blind to see what the future may hold for you
I simply cannot be the one, to tell you what he will do.
I’ve lived in your shoes, I’ve been in that bed
and I have seen his darkest side.
I will tell you, though, to watch your back.
He knows exactly what to hide.
If you’re too blind to see, beyond the shiny and the new,
perhaps the problem isn’t him, but it’s what’s inside of you.
You want to win, to be the best, to be his deepest love,
It’s much too soon for you, my friend, to see what he’s made of.
I am not bitter, I have no regrets, that I left that life behind,
I tolerated how he treated me, yet I now know that I was blind.
If you’re too blind to see what lurks in your life now,
There’s nothing I can do for you, but hope you’ll see somehow.
See, I know what his habits are, how he hides behind deceit.
His patterns will reflect that he’s a liar and a cheat.
If you’re too blind to see it all, you’ll get sucked into his world,
while you wonder why you feel so low, and emotionally unfurled
I was blind for far too long, and when I saw the light,
I found a healthy love for me, someone who treats me right.
When you finally realize, dear girl, what all the red flags mean,
Remember, I have been there once. It’s what, I too, have seen.
But right now you live your life, naive, with blinders on.
If you were smart, you’d take them off, before you’re too far gone.
Take it from me, and from women before, he’ll never change his ways .
Misogynists and narcissists keep you blindfolded in a haze.
