All the lies
This isn't the way it was supposed to be
Things started out so perfectly
we were so happy our future set in stone
never would I have thought this
would leave me alone
but time after time you broke my trust
what i thought was love you felt as lust
you locked up my heart but gave her the key
I see now you love her and you'll never love me
I should've known it was too good to be true
but yet here I am crying over you
now I'm left betrayed
I was a fool to think you would stay
you shared love with her knowing I was the cost
and now I realize the lies you spread
only messed with my head
I may now forgive you but I will never forget
