Tired are my eyes,
As is my weary soul,
A fire dances before me,
Magnificent as lies,
The lies you told me,
The way you'd hold me,
Every look spoke love to me,
All you took you stole from me,
And it had a toll on me,
When you took a stroll on me,
I want to wipe that smirk off your face,
I want to smother you in what you did to me,
I want you to know, not just to ignore,
I want to show, not rot at the core,
You would have nothing of it,
Walking away only proves you don't love it,
Words you spoke to me,
Are like dirt on my hands,
As i wash them,
The more the world understands,
The dirt it swirls at the bottom of the drain,
Like every word you said in feign,
All i want to know,
That would bring solace to my heart,
All that would've made this clear from the start,
To know just what you wanted from me,
That you took without a plea,
With no regard to my broken heart,
Shattered to pieces and torn apart,
But you didn't care,
You just walked on by,
And now you are the one wondering why?
Take a long hard look at the road you've thus traveled,
And then tell me why you think we unraveled,
I'd really love to hear,
Your side of the story, dear,
Cause i'd really love to know,
Why you dragged me so,
Further and further along,
Til there was no joy left in my song,
And you wonder as to why i finally turned away,
Did you ever wonder what i had to say,
I would've told you how much i cared,
I would've told you had i not been scared,
Scared that this love you had not shared,
And fearing that there was no way i ever compared.
For you, my dear,
No, my past,
I hope that the truth travels fast,
Seeps into your skin and shatters your bones,
Tears out your heart and strikes it with stones,
Then i shall follow as you have taught me,
And act as though the devil has wrought me,
Employ the evil, of which you thought me,
Then walk away, just as you forgot me.
