You haven't called or wrote for at least three weeks, and now that you're gone it's a new love I seek. Life isn't good, it's actually real bad, my heart is broken but I say I'm not sad. No time to despair, no time to cry, instead of living I'd rather just die.
Let me tell you how it all began, when I get to the end you might understand. He said, "I love you," held my heart in his hand; put me on a pedestal and made me feel grand. When it was over, I knew I was blind everything he said was nothing but lies.
Not much had changed since that first guy, it seemed they all wanted to hurt me, tried to make me cry. I thought I was over that feeling a long time ago, and made it a rule not to let my feelings show. Then you came along, I made a mistake, I thought you were different; my rule I could break.
I trusted you with my life and my love, and thought you were a prince sent from heaven above. I gave you my heart, placed it in your care, you said your loved me; you'd always be there. You wrote me often, called all the time, and when you came near me your love you let shine.
I forgot all the hurt I felt in the past, and thought the love we shared would always last. But now you've grown distant, it seems you don't care. I reach out to hold you, but youre never there. Now I've picked up my heart and put it back in place, but can't seem to forget that look on your face.
The look you gave me when we were young, the look that you saved for when we had fun. The truth hurts, yes, I see that now; but maybe I'll find love again someday, somehow. You were a player, I was a fool - you were playing a game and I was the tool.
When you were done, you continued your life, how did I ever imagine being your wife? Yes, you hurt me, but my life goes on; and maybe I'll heal when your memory's gone. One day I'll forget you, but you'll never see all of the damage your lies did to me.
I'll continue my life at a steady pace; when we meet again I'll have a smile on my face. Never again will you hurt me this way, and I'll strive to forget you a little more each day. I hope someone, someday hurts you as you've done to me, at that time you'll open your eyes and you'll see.
Love isn't a toy, it isn't a game, it isn't something you write like a name. I won't need you once your momory is gone, I'll continue life withouth you and someday move on. I gave you power to hurt me for so many years, but now that you're gone there's not time for tears. No time for fear, no time for pain, the more I lose you the more I'll gain.
