if i had blinked i would have missed you
you didn't hover long
i barely had an interest
i turned and you were gone
you came back strong for another shot
i started to pay attention
i hear all the lies now, that then i forgot
your selfishness you forgot to mention
you made me believe it was worth being with you
your throne to my knees i did bend
and now i'm out here on my own pretending
ah, you were just a lover, never a friend

i was alone
you lived your life

every inch of my soul is shred to tears
i doubt i can ever forgive you
love and laughter,  now  grief and fear
crazy that i could still want you

you broke off pieces till nothing was left
i dare you to come get the rest
although  you know you don't deserve to
they'd only shatter in your carelessness

how sad it doesn't matter

i was always alone
you will live your life

there's nothing left
i can't pretend
