Another belief shattered, like thousands of broken mirrors
‘Forever’ seemed so real; but like everything else, ‘forever’ came to an end.
I wonder if you planned it, I wonder if you knew it was lies.
I’m just now realizing, slower than you; I’ve run out of tries.
Been dragging on relationships that have long since been gone,
In shock that those who said they’d stay, didn’t stay too long.
They’ve turned their backs without a cue,
Seemed to erase our memories, both the old and the new.
The saying says that ignorance is bliss
But as I stand with ignorance, I can’t let it dismiss.
I don’t know if I did something wrong, why did you all leave me the way you did?
It’s probably my fault, though I don’t know what I did.
Am I sick of me, or just the way you make me feel?
I guess all these friends lost shows who was real.
I know I never did anything to you,
But I know I have my own problems too.
I’m beginning to believe you left because I brought you down.
I know I have issues and I wouldn’t let you in,
I just wanted to protect you,
You have no idea how many fake smiles I spin.
I’m still ‘a good friend, I don’t do you wrong.
Just ‘lies’ or excuses to keep your satisfaction strong.
For why I looked like I’d been crying,
Or why there was cuts along my arm,
It was all so you wouldn’t have to worry,
You’re the reason I faked my charm.
But don’t feel bad, that’s not my goal,
I won’t even tell you you’re cutting into my soul.
All you need know, is I discovered your lies,
Never come back to me with ‘forever’ as your disguise.
