Did you ever really love me?
You can't even answer that question,
It's probably too heavy.
I can say with shame, that I loved you so,
The crying game, is something I know.
One sentence is all it took,
To trap my hope on tender hooks.
What did I do to deserve such cruelty?
All I have done is love you foolishly.

I was just trying to be happy,
But you stole it from me.
Walking down an empty corridor,
My heart was here, it isn't anymore.
In your chest, a piece of me lay,
Until the day you uttered a lie,
The piece remained until it died.
Now, here I am, many moons have passed,
And I am mourning,
My heart hurts from the broken glass.

I know, that I have to let this go.
But I can't, it's too much of my life taken to simply ignore.
The sad truth is, you never wanted more.
You shut me out, with your deception and lies,
You shut me out, no retribution in your eyes.

I was just trying to be happy,
But you stole it from me.
Walking down an empty corridor,
My heart was here, it isn't anymore.
In your chest, a piece of me lay,
Until the day you uttered a lie,
The piece remained until it died.
Now, here I am, many moons have passed,
And I am mourning,
My heart hurts from the broken glass.

I'm humbled to know that you loved me once.
I just wish that you knew how much this hurts.
I can't fight back the tears for much longer,
I'm drowning in fear, I'm not growing stronger.

I was just trying to be happy,
But you stole if from me.
Walking down an empty corridor,
My heart was here, it isn't anymore.
In your chest, a piece of me lay,
Until the day you uttered a lie,
The piece remained until it died.
Now, here I am, many moons have passed,
And I am mourning,
My heart hurts from the broken glass.

It's all going to be alright,
I just dream away through the nights.
Maybe I'll pluck the strings on my guitar,
Get rid of you forever, locked away in a song.
I'll grab my pen and until I die,
Poems of betrayal I'll forever write.
