You take back
Everything you say,
And at the end of the day,
There's no story to be told.
You're all alone
In the person you portray.
You speak without
Looking at my face
So how do I know
You mean what you say?

You were an actor
Playing the part.
You preached your words
Better than a pastor.
Who was I to believe
Every word you spoke,
When every time you'd say,
"I love you,"
You almost choked.

I stay away every other day,
My mind is gone but
My body still lies with you.
I put you on a pedestal
But it was sure to brake.
Just like the time you take,
You pass by and
Can never be replayed.
The time between you and I
Goes "tic-toc" and then you're gone.
