even though you told me
you didn't like me anymore
i loved you
like i never knew anything else
i don't know what was worse
loving you
or hiding it
when it was so obvious
that i was done for
i didn't understand it
why you just left
but all the reasons i came up with
were too scary to bear
so i lay awake
thinking of you
thinking of your words
thinking of how you promised to never leave me
but just like it was easy for me to tear you apart
it was easy for you to lie through your teeth
