What Was His Name?

What was his name?
Tho one who touched me just so
The one who taught me to lust
To lust for that moment
That time
That place
The one with no heed for tomorrow
Oh, what was his name?

What was his name?
The one who cast me aside
The one who taught me rejection
To hate this moment
This time
This place
The one with no care for my sorrow
The one who destroyed me
Oh, what was his name?

Who was at fault?
Who was to blame?
Who took the risk?
Oh, what was his name?

What was his name?
The one who left me to die
The one who taught me the pain
To pang each moment
Each time
Each place
The one who stole my tomorrows
The one who has slayed me
Oh, what was his name?

Who took the gamble?
What was his aim?
Who snubbed the odds?
Oh, what was his name?

What was his name?
The one who left me so bitter
The one who taught me to blame
To blame that moment
That time
That place
The one who leaves families in sorrow
The one who can't flee
Oh, what was his name?

I guess his name was...me
