And now we've hit the end, Not sure how I feel anymore, Is this Pain and Guilt and Shame? Lies of the promises we swore. Anger and Jealousy and Hurt, I never claimed to be perfect. It's hard, trying to be positive. When you're struck with Defects. So maybe I just tried too hard, To tell you that you had no flaws, Tried in vain to bandage the broken, Couldn't be fixed by any tape or gauze. Just maybe wasn't meant to happy, Yet you'll always mean so much. You've gone off so far, so distant, Removed from my life and clutch. My loyalty wasn't good enough, Tried to be honest, you didn't care. Yet I let you burn me, Twice now, Leaving for yet another affair. I'll never stop worrying and caring, But right now I don't forgive you. You used me like the fool for you I am, without caring the damage you'd do. I'll just turn and walk away for now, There's no point in trying so hard anymore, No clue if I'll ever hear from you again, But I'll be here, like always, if you want an Encore.
