Why do you walk away,
and break my heart.
You took my faith,
my love, my life,
You told me you loved
me....You lied.
When I look into your
eyes,
The look I see, cannot
be disguised.
That
distance, that far away look,
Tells me beyond doubt...You
lied.
My hopes and dreams
have ceased,
My heart aches, reels
from pain.
You tell me things
are fine,
But those eyes tell
me...You lied.
The words you speak
are empty,
Meaningless, without
gravity.
You want to save me
from pain,
But I know deep down...You
lied.
As the darkness surrounds
me,
The tears fall so
free.
This ache in my soul,
this hurt,
This suffering I feel
tells me...You lied.
So I will bide my
time,
Wait for time to heal
my wounds.
Until then I'll pretend
things are fine,
Forgetting the pain
of knowing...You lied.
