You see right through me,
Like my being is a mirage.
Breathe new life into me,
With your ice cold breath.
Always searching, always hunting
For our loving companions,
Another hand to hold.
When do you give in? When do you fold?
So much heartbreak,
How much pain can one heart take?
Lies, deceit, trickery
You held my heart and dropped it.
You told me this is what you wanted,
That I was something new, something refreshing.
That we were in it for the long haul,
Until you dropped the ball.
If you're not over her, why am I here?
Why am I laying in your bed?
It doesn't feel right my dear,
And now I feel like my heart might burst.
I saw something special in you,
I thought I finally got it right.
But in the blink of an eye, you're gone
I'm not sure what to do.
Part of me feels empty
Without you to talk to all day.
I guess it will always be this way,
I wish I could rewind time.
I liked it better when I didn't know you,
The pain would all undo.
But we have no such luxury
In the evil we call life.
