Leave (Get Out)

Get Out, right now,
It’s the end of you and me
It’s too late and I can’t wait for you to be gone
‘Cause I know about her and I wonder how I bought all the lies
You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time.

She was still singing. Matt had to admit that she had a pretty voice.
No don’t look! Don’t look at her. he kept telling himself.
“I’m sorry, Matt.” Jordan said. “I was so sure, last time!”
“Well at least you didn’t go out with any of them.” Matt sighed.
“But you just can’t give up on the ladies, just because I’m no good at finding them for you. Why don’t you look for one yourself?”
Matt sighed. “Maybe.”
Jordan looked encouraged. “That’s the spirit!”
“But not now!” Matt insisted.
“Oh all right. Suit yourself.”Jordan wandered off across the dance floor.
Matt sat down in a chair with his soda. Why did I even agree to come here?
Someone was standing next to his chair. He looked up.
“Hey.” she said.
Oh no, oh no, oh no! “Hey.” he said.
Don’t talk to her!
