How did it happen?
I was so careful not to let you in
Keep you at a distance
But damned if you didn't seep into my heart
You kissed away my demons
Pushed away my fears
But
I pushed you away too
You said 'I love you' every morning and night
But I never
Ever
Believed you
I knew that you didn't mean those words
I knew you'd leave eventually
But how did it happen
How do you just 'fall out of love'?
I guess I can figure it out...
You told me you don't love me tonight
Great.
I don't love me either.
Did you ever really love me?
Or was that all just a great big joke?
I shouldn't be this broken
You left me
I wasn't supposed to care about you
But I did
And it only strengthens my resolve
I won't let anyone lie to me again
Because there is always an end
