unrequited love of a sort |
You never promised me forever You never said that we'd end up together. But I took your words as truth And then I saw the real you. My dear, you're not as clever as you think Nor as charming and sweet. You think you can hide from the world But the fact of the matter is, I know that to you, there is more. Acting like you're someone that you're not Isn't the way that we were meant to be, but I guess you forgot. I know what it is like to feel so in the in the dark And dream about a time when you're not afraid to be who you are. I could have been the one to help you through this That's just the way my love is. Your eyes betray nothing to most But through them I see your soul. The deepest of secrets, there they reside As you hope no one sees them and reveals your lies. Even though you think that you need no one to be there Everyone needs someone to hold onto and with them share. You think your life so complicated So dark and frustrated That it's impossible for someone to care But if you only gave yourself a chance to be there. You'd know that just maybe Someone could possibly see That life isn't just about pain But it can about love again. If you'd let me, I'll show you how If you'd only try, right now I vow To make your life as easy and close to bliss Because that's just the way my love is. Looking in your eyes tonight I saw everything in a different light As we sat there alone A darkness in your eyes was shone You never really let me in And I don't even know where to begin. You were all that I had left And your abandonment has left me bereft. You took everything that I gave you, Everything that was in my soul, too And you used me You discarded me And you left me alone with lies So hurt and weak that I wanted to die. I guess life doesn't always end in bliss and I know this because That's just the way my love was... |
