When I was young
I never understood
How two people
Could fall out of loveIf two people
Are in love
Doesn't that mean forever?
Doesn't it mean they'll never hurt each other?It wasn't until I was 16
That I understoodWhen you did it
You destroyed me
Piece by piece
Leaving me
Completely and utterly
DestroyedMaybe it was because I was 16
That I believed every
Beautiful
Twisted lie
You told me
Baby you told them oftenI believed
That every time
You slipped my panties down my legs
That it was out of loveI believed
That every time
You left a hickey on my neck
You were showing what was yoursI believed
That every time
You kissed me
You meant itThe worst lie you told
That I believed
Was three words
"I love you"Now I know
That two people don't fall out of love
It means
That one of them
Never was in love at allThat's what makes it worse
