Truth is I can blame them for breaking my heart I can scream loudly and tell of how much I gave My loyalty, my heart, my love.... Everything my father instilled in me Though nonsensical, truth is, sometimes the very best is not desired by them Truth is, signals of disaster went ignored For the thought of life like the Cleavers Fairy tale of 50's era love Blinded by the immediate Disposed warnings of the past Miscarrying the trust of my future All to live in the now Now, this moment of smiles This instant where laughter prevails Exchanges of lured glances Mine escaping as i'm exposed Emotions spill over Secrets, I cannot keep Excitement at the possibility of him Weakens the walls Eventually they tumble To reveal what was once hidden While his...yeah his... counterfeit at best Simulated exercises Maybe all to arrive at what lays below my waist But I sensed.... Thought I saw a glimpse.... Betrayal that's plagued me all my life Always present though from it I desperately flee Easier to disregard than to affirm Warning bells blaring Managed to convince myself they were bells of the alter But how can I blame them When I surrender myself for slaughter Melting into the arms of a dangerous stranger Not heeding the voice of my father hopelessly screaming "WAIT" I lunge into the sea of possibilities Only to end up carried by currents to the sea of broken pieces Shards of me destroyed Truth is my pain is self inflicted Never has my father not warned before the storm Force myself to look in the mirror Truth is..I always knew the truth It was much more comfortable to live the lie Truth is I can blame them for breaking my heart I can scream loudly and tell of how much I gave My loyalty, my heart, my love.... Everything my father instilled in me Truth is I bare responsibility for the tears I cry I stand ashamed and disheartened at my truth revealed
