I was defended by the soothing tones of his voice
I can no longer hear the surrounding noise

Only the memories of cherubs
singing beautiful symphonies
In his lies
Those infections tones
Would pacify my heart
Like the sweetest of lullabys

And I could no longer hear clearly

I would selectively
Hear his words
To upease my reality

Because at night
As I would lay by his side to sleep

I could no longer hear his heart beat for me

Falling so hard for him
I landed face first and shattered my smile

I would jump over hurdles
With his image in my mind

But every time that I would approach the finishing line
I would stumble on his faults
and land on my pride

And everytime I'd arise
To walk by his side
My ****** knees would give way

I can still feel the pain
In every step that I take
It's like a niggling feeling
That just wont escape

It's so deep with that I don't even trust myself
To stand alone
