Don't you dare tell me I'm free
Then laugh when I do something wrong
Don't tell me you trust
and you believe
Then show me you lied all along

You tell me she tried,
so hard that she cried
But what you don't know
is what was inside
of me with you
there was so much more
than you had thought

No I wouldn't tell
there was far too much
And for me you don't know how hard that was

I couldn't share,
it wasn't yours,
now I know you care,
but what for?

And you couldn't have told me
sooner
either
just kept it behind my back

I hope you two
had a lot of laughs
with that joke you pulled
a couple weeks back

The one where you both
faked to care
about a person you both
wished wasn't there

You told me you'd say
if something were wrong
you lied.

You told me I was free
to live as I want
you lied.

If there was someone else,
you told me you'd tell
I'm not surprised you lied.

You told me you valued honesty.
You love, you crave, transparency.
I don't believe a word of this mess
Darling dear, I am skeptical at best.
