“Pretty”

I always meant to use you, even from the start.
To me it didn't matter, if you let me break your heart.
I always knew I'd leave you - never quite knew when.
In a way I guess I left before it all began.

(Chorus)
I might be pretty on the outside, inside I’m pretty cruel.
But pretty much I always knew , I'd end up using you.
Yeah pretty much, I always knew - I think you did too,
That I'm pretty on the outside, but inside pretty cruel

It would have been so boring, for me to be direct.
So instead I fed your anger with a diet of neglect.
That's why it didn't matter, when you told me go to hell .
It's what I really wanted - was surprised you couldn't tell

And now that it’s all over, I’m sure you think it’s best,
But because I know it hurts you, I’m telling you the rest.
I couldn’t let you walk away, thinking that you’d won,
So now I’m going to tell you just exactly what I’ve done.

(Chorus)

For me, you see, there never was, very much at stake.
Except the dull amusement, of watching your heart break.
And I think that you should know, as you lie alone awake
That I’m with someone else now and you were a mistake

You wanted someone pretty, some ornamental jewel
And even though I used you, in a way you used me too
I guess I turned the tables, let you become the fool
Because I’m pretty on the outside, but inside pretty cruel

So you really don’t have any, room left to complain
You set out to use me, but somehow you lost the game
And now you want to blame me, well I think that’s insane
Perhaps one day you’ll understand why I am not ashamed

I might be pretty on the outside, inside I’m pretty cruel.
Maybe now you see why I’m so proud that statement’s true
Pretty much, I always knew - I think that you did too,
That I'm pretty on the outside, But inside pretty cruel

Your rhyme and rhythm is so Tight - these lyrics sing themselves they're so well written. I really liked the way you treated your subject - and I really liked the subtle innuendos about being "pretty" that didn't necessarily match up with the speaker's direct message. They added another dimension to the piece. Thankyou!
