shooting star

you lied to me

i knew you would

my trust in you

is not good

 

i wanted to know

you wanted to hide

that secret part

that scary side

 

my gut says run

also my heart too

i thought there was something

when i looked at you

 

somewhere along the line

my heart got smarter

and my mind refused

a thought to barter

 

my safety is key

you have no right

sick and twisted

i refuse this fight

 

when you soon realize

how alone you are

you will then see

i am like a shooting star
