Lie To Me Again

So tell me you love me 

and lie to me one more time 

And I'll act like I believe it 

For the sake of the relationship 

Tell me I'm the only one you think of everyday 

The only one you want 

The girl you want to marry, 

spend the rest of your life with 

Tell me I'm your dream girl 

So I can laugh and ask what about that girl I saw you kissing the other day 

And suddenly your face looks flushed, 

Like someone drained all the blood from your body 

And you stare at me, 

Looking so present, yet so dazed and lost at the same time 

"Exactly, that's what I thought. Now save it for someone who really cares, cause I stopped a long time ago." I say and walk away.

I want to turn back and get one last look at you, 

My sad tired eyes start filling up with tears, 

And although you always said you never liked to see me cry, 

This time you were the reason, 

So I do turn around, and stare at you as you stare at me 

Hoping that all the pain I feel, can be shown through my eyes and without words, 

Because words are only sounds and wastes of oxygen when you don't really mean them.
