Waiting For The End

I Lied

Look me in the eye,

And give me a reason why,

I shouldn't walk away.

Why I shouldn't say goodbye.

We were so young,

You believed we would last.

So innocent and unknowing,

But I left you in my past.

You burned alone,

It was never love,

For life goes on.

I've had enough.

I guess I lied all those times,

When I said I loved you.

Or when I promised you forever.

When I said I wouldn't leave you.

I guess I'm just empty,

There is nothing left inside.

I warned you from the beginning,

I advised you to hide.

There is nothing warm about me,

I've been lost for too long.

I welcome the darkness,

The memory too strong.

Wandering aimlessly,

Attempting to discover,

My reason for existence,

I failed as a lover.

My love died long ago.

Along with my soul.

I was better off dead,

Here I have no role.

Perhaps I should just smile,

And find someone new,

To lie to for a while.

And bid you adieu.
