 | When you told me you love me
I was happy to reside in your melodic embrace
An hour, a day, and a week in grace
I was broken to see your lips on hers
The pain gnawed my heart in pieces
But my lament was to be heard in silence
The surfaced smile must be dazzling with patience
Tears fell just to know I loved you, too
I took it all as if it were my fault
For believing in you
For falling so true
Everything is under my blame
When you told me you love me, again
I just smiled with suspicion in mind
What you had with her wasn’t so kind
Even with no devotion or bond
She moved on because you also broke her heart
I thought she did deserve someone better
Like I do deserve someone better
And I felt disgusted… by you
Yet, somehow, I learned to forget it all
She is out of the picture
And I am Faith’s prisoner
I forgave the past for a second chance
When you told me you love me yesterday
Unknowingly I said, “I love you, too”
To my surprise, perhaps, I still do
Still believe in you, still fall so true
But you just have to prove me wrong
By holding her again in your arms
Thinking you can get away with your charms
That is where you are mistaken
I am, once more, on the wrath of shattering
I never want to look, again, in your eyes
Because all they show is the lies
I want to break you, make you pay
But I will not, I shall not
I know I am better
Better than her, the cheater
Loving you with her lover aside
I pity me for showing sympathy earlier
She doesn’t deserve someone better
Her beau merits someone else but her
And maybe, you are not a better man at all
When you tell me you love me the next time
I will smile while crying within
Knowing your words mean nothing
Part of me probably still wants to believe
And when you tell me you love me some other day
I will smile while dying within
Knowing your words mean absolutely nothing
I die from loving a liar
