I never knew how painful love can be
Before we had crossed
That one-way street.
As we walked along the messed up city road,
Covered with dust and asphalt,
My body decided to crumble as it inhaled every
Broken promises exhaled by your past lovers,
Now hiding underneath
Thin sheets of winter night covers
Just to feel the freedom of warmth you took from them

But I didn't mind as we continued walking
On that one-way road
Not really knowing where to go

I never knew how painful love can be
Before we had decided where to eat.
As we sat under the dim light,
Your face became brighter
Due to the fact you would rather
Face your phone
Than face me

But I didn't mind,
Maybe I just got used to you ignoring me

I never knew how painful love can be
After you used me to
Get out from your problems
When I had to bail you
Out because of your own addictions
When I willingly accepted every nightmare
You cast upon me just so I could comfort you
With every dream I had left in me

Only then did I fully realized how painful love can be
When you told me that my love was empty
When you felt that my promises were pointless
But you never realized that it was
Your love that was hollow.
