Say you're sorry
That face of an angel comes out
Just when you need it to
As I pace back and forth all this time
'Cause
I honestly believed in you
Holdin' on,
The days drag on
Stupid girl
I should've known, I should've known
I walked down the hallway, looking for his face in the crowded school. And I spotted him, standing at his locker. A smile lit my face and I pushed aside a few angry peers to get to him. "Hey!" I said brightly. He turned to look at me, and he seemed to be expecting someone else, because his smile fell when he saw me. He didn't have time to recover, and neither did I.
That I'm not a princess
This ain't a fairytale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood,
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now its too late for you and your White Horse,
To come around.[/i][/b]
"Yeah, I heard he likes some other girl. I feel bad for his girlfriend, she has no idea."
I froze in the hallway. Him? He wouldn't break up with me, would he? What about all the times he'd said he loved me? Were those just words to him? Lies he could feed me? I felt my books slipping from my fingers, and with a sinking feeling they fell to the floor, trampled by the wave of students, just like my heart.
Maybe I was naïve,
Got lost in your eyes
I never really had a chance.
My mistake I didnt know to be in love
you had to fight to have the upper hand.
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings;
Now I know
"I heard things. That you like another girl. That you were breaking up with me." Please say no. Please say its all lies. He averted my gaze of hope, and my heart stuttered. "Who said that?" he was angry. Of course. He wanted to know who ratted him out. He would have started consoling me right away if he still liked me. I hardened my eyes. "Just tell me if its true." I said. There was a long silence, the clammer of kids rushing to 5th hour was silence to me. He looked down anxiously. "It is." he said quietly. "I'm sorry."
He closed his locker and that was it.

To come around.
I stared blankly at the wall. What did I do wrong? Was I too clingy? Did I ignore him? Had I rushed it? Did his friends hate me? Who was this other girl?
I had been looking at the wall all night long, feeling a few tears of self-pity fall down my face and onto the pillow. I had thought we had something. Maybe not forever, but for longer than this. I had been wrong.
And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness,
Begging for me
Just like I always wanted,
But I'm so sorry
"It was a mistake, baby! Honest, you're the one I love!" he said, his voice pleading now. This had been in my dreams, that we could be together again. But I remembered the feeling of being alone, of feeling my heart torn in two. "No." I said, shaking my head. "I can't. You broke my heart once, I can't let you do it again."
I blocked his words out of my mind as I left him there, just like he'd left me.
Cause Im not your princess
This aint a fairytale
Im gonna find someone, Some day
Who might actually treat me well.
This is a big world,
That was a small town
There in my rearview mirror,
Disappearing now.
And it's too late for you and your White Horse,
Now its too late for you and your White Horse
To catch me now.
It's too late
To catch me now.
I sat in homeroom, still feeling slightly sad. Had I been right to turn him down? Was I going to regret it tomorrow?
Someone hesitantly tapped my shoulder. "I heard you broke up with your boyfriend." the cute, red-haired boy said. I nodded solemly. "Well, if you wanted to go see a movie or something this weekend, that'd be cool." I felt my frown turn slightly, a small smile. "I'd like that." I said, feeling the despair rise out of my chest.
