White is what you saw when you saw me
You could see the innocence and purity that I led and refused to give for free
You told me it was "ok and that you understood"
I thought I could trust you, I really thought I could
And from that day on we grew closer
You saw me as an angel, pure and untouched by any other
You said it yourself, you wanted to wait for the right lover
For the first time in my life, I thought I could see the man I would share a part of myself with
But then you broke my trust because you were to consumed with yourself
Never giving a damn of how I felt
Because instead of staying true to the words you whispered that day
You did the opposite with every other as I had to watch and was forced to stay
Not because I wanted to
But because my heart was too far gone
It now only beat for you
But you didn't care because you never knew
At least I stayed pure, but my innocence was now lost
Because it died the day you took off
No longer can I look at a man the same way
Because my heart still burns from the remembrance of your name
