I believed you when you told me
That you'd hold me for forever and a day.
And I believed you when you told me
That you'd never be far away.

I even believed you when you lied
And believed you while I cried.
I even believed you after picking up
The black pieces of my heart that had died.

You were always quite the act
And I bought the bulk package.
Now I'm stuck with glass shards
Roughly poking through my bandage.

But I'm glad I'm a creature of evolution
And I can learn from my mistakes.
Because now I know the truth
And I've been trained to see through the fakes.

I won't believe in it any more
Because I now know too much.
I won't fall for any sparks that alight
Even if we touch.

It simply won't happen. Because I don't believe in it at all.
I've got too many bruises too.
Because nobody caught me during the fall.
