Something called \"I hope she cheats\" or something like that. It struck a raw nerve with me, I guess. I don't like country much anyway, but the song itself just sounded so vindictive. There's two sides to a story, so I figured I'd tell the story from the guys point of view. That's what this little piece of poetry is about. I think it would be his response.","content":"Wasn't Just Me\n\nby: Lu-Man\n\nWell, vindictive ain't a good look on anyone\n\nAnd darlin, it's ugly on you\n\nI heard you talkin all around the whole town\n\nabout what you hope she will do\n\nNo, things ain't perfect\n\nBut for right now it'll do\n\nBut lookin back, it's paradise\n\ncompared to what I had with you\n\nYou may think, our love was complete\n\nUntil that day you saw me cheat,\n\nbut maybe...\n\nI don't enjoy staying up till three at night\n\njust to fight\n\nAnd I don't like explaining my every charge\n\non my credit card\n\nPerhaps you think things was sweet\n\nUntil you the day you saw me cheat\n\nBut maybe, baby, it wasn't just me\n\nIt wasn't just me\n\nMaybe it was the time you drunk text your ex\n\nat two in the mornin\n\nIt could have been all the times you said I should've left\n\nInstead of just tryin to hang on\n\nYou may think, our love was complete\n\nUntil that day that you saw me cheat,\n\nbut maybe...\n\nI don't enjoy staying up till three at night\n\njust to fight\n\nOr I don't like the way I was always torn down\n\nwith your friends around\n\nPerhaps you think things was sweet\n\nUntil you the day you saw me cheat\n\nBut maybe, baby, it wasn't just me\n\nIt wasn't just me\n\nHow can you be so surprised\n\nHow things ended that night?\n\nSpend all your time tearing some one down\n\nThey won't be hanging around\n\nIf you keep someone shut outside\n\nDon't be surprised when they see the light.\n\nMaybe it was all the accusing calls...\n\nOr maybe it was the drunk text fights...\n\nOr the way you would keep me up at night....\n\nWith accusations and petty fights...\n\nMaybe I was just sick and tired...\n\nOf feeling like I was never right\n\nOf being put down, and how you were hardly around...\n\nPerhaps you think things was sweet\n\nUntil you the day saw me cheat\n\nBut maybe, baby, it wasn't just me\n\nIt wasn't just me\n\n  \n  \n\n"}
