The tears that slipped from my eyes
Became tainted with red, when you let me fall
You swore you would keep me from that drop
Promised me your love
You let me go…
I fell…
And landed without pain.
All I can think is
"he let me go, why doesn't he love me anymore? What did I do wrong?"
why did you let me fall,
why did you push me closer to the edge?
I wanted to ask you
I wanted you to tell me that you didn’t mean it
[Please! Tell me you never meant it…tell me you will still hold me]
But my throat closed….
My pride rules
I can only whisper
Why?
In a never-ending mantra
You answer me in blatant tones
"I never loved you, I never cared"
[Now please…Tell me it was just a lie]
I break down,
sobbing unmercifully.
Why did you do this to me?
Why did you push me over the edge?
Did you want to hurt me,
to kill my spirit, my soul?
His voice is without remorse
As he says, “I just wanted a lay”
And, as I stare with disbelieve
At the man I had loved,
My world crashes around
[He was my world]
My world has shattered,
and I realize I am the fool,
for giving him what he wanted.
I should have suspected all along
what he wanted.
But love's sticky web caught me up,
and seduced me into thinking all was true.
I find out in the end,
nothing was true,
everything was a lie to get to me.
To get into me
And I played the [innocent] fool
I never suspected
I gave him my all
Everything I was
Everything I ever could be
But…never again
Because, love isn’t a two-sided thing
Never again shall I trust,
[Now please…Tell me it was just a lie]
never again will I fall in love.
Nobody will wholly have my heart,
after what you did.
I hope your happy you broke me,
shattered me,
because I’ll never be the same again.
The little pieces left of me
[Scattered on my floor]
Shall never be sullied by another’s lies
No one shall touch them
Broken forever
[Now please…Tell me it was just a lie]
There are no whole pieces left of me,
of what I was.
Broken in every aspect.
I'll never be the same,
never see sunshine.
I wish this was all a lie
[Now please…Tell me it was just a lie]
tell me it was a lie,
and save my soul.
Please! Love please!
Tell me it was a lie
Tell me it was a bad dream
Or…
Tell me it’s the truth, as you wipe away my memories…
I can live with this lie, if I can lie in your arms again
