I got a lot on my mind
I'm dying to let it out.*
This relationship has gone sour
The sweet venom losing it's edge.

I'm opening my eyes to a new reality
How could hope fail me
I believed in you & I
It's ashame to watch it die.

Checkers, chess, hopscotch,
I played those games when I was 12.
You drag me around like a rag doll
A piece in a game I don't want to play

Love is faith
Love is hope
How can we overcome if you don't have both?
How will we survive when mine continue to die?

We're holding on by a thread
I see the splits
I see the rips
This is done for, no more bliss

Letting small things go
When they really continue to build up
Creating frustrations in me
I don't need to know.

My lover, my best friend, my everything.
That's what you're supposed to be
Yet, I feel like just your "*****"
And I'm not down with it, you see

Trust, trust, trust, and truth
Lying about small things
Why should I believe you?
Without trust, why should I love you?

Taking my innocence for granted
You'll rue that
Taking my heart and slamming it
What's wrong with you?

Acknowledging your love,
Well I'm still looking for it.
You're my karma.
I'm the one that got away.
