I once Lost myself for you Out on a limb reaching for you Viscously fought for your attention Expecting the worse hoping for the best Didn't expect what you brought to the table You walked right through me Over my heart and through the forest you went Used me like a love song I once Made you my all I knew better Shame on me Shame on you Everyone knew Didn't see it coming Yelling for closure Outsmarted by your games Utterly humiliated I once Forgot how to live Evenings alone Lusted for onces touch Told myself never again Alive in the midst of death Living of the old memories Inviting the reaper in for a cup Victory wasn't an option anymore Everlasting joy swallowed in darkness
