You promised me a lifetime I guess a lifetime means to you less than a year I remember all the times You whispered "till infinity" inside my ear "It's over" didn't mean anything to you more than mere words But for me, it was the end; the final stab of the sword It hurt, oh, it hurt. Weeks on end, I wondered if I had made a mistake I gave you my heart and you stabbed it with a stake I cried and cried till there were no longer tears left to cry Then I admitted to myself that that Lifetime was goodbye.

Lifetime
You promised me a lifetime I guess a lifetime means to you less than a year I remember all the times You whispered "till infinity" inside my ear "It's over" didn't mean anything to you more than mere words But for me, it was the end; the final stab of the sword It hurt, oh, it hurt. Weeks on end, I wondered if I had made a mistake I gave you my heart and you stabbed it with a stake I cried and cried till there were no longer tears left to cry Then I admitted to myself that that Lifetime was goodbye.
Took me a long time to admit it to myself - hope you all can relate
