I lie to myself everyday
But I can't trick my heart
I say that I won't cry when its over
These strings weren't meant to get attached

And I lie to you too
Saying I don't care
Left like a memory on the wall
Hands like windscreen wipers for my tears

Smiling loudly
At the moments
That are now long gone
And made me feel like I belonged

My heart dared me to believe
Gave me permission to live
To fall in love with life
So I fell blindingly fast

Painted colourful dreams
With eyes wide open
That started off with pretending
But ****** me in without realising

So what if we didn't make it together
Through every endeavour
Whatever the weather
Even though I need you now more than ever
I thought this time was forever

*you always leave and I always take you back
