I could’ve sworn you were all about,
figuring all your exits out,
leaving me alone to my devices.
I should’ve known it was all a lie,
never thought you’d leave me out to dry,
and now I’m stuck battling your vices.
Don’t tell me what I’m not, no its not okay,
when all the words that come outta you are lies.
Everything we built is broken down and up in flames,
so how could I trust you when I’m dead to you inside?
After time away you told me you were sorry
I pieced together feelings hoping you would show me
what we lost way back when and why our ties were severed.
But in this case you’ve erased memories of me and everything
I’m at loss ‘cause you don’t remember.
Don’t blame me or frame me, no its not my fault,
when you won’t even look at me at all.
It’s times like this that made me sick and drove me up a wall
yet I believed you and always took the fall.
Diving into your heart, I wonder where I’ve been ‘cause it’s
obvious from the start, it ended before I knew it.
Don’t tell me what I’m not, no its not okay,
when all the words that come outta you are lies.
And everything we built is broken down and up in flames,
so how could I trust you when you’re dead to me inside?
