Emotional Death

You took advantage of my feelings As if they never mattered Knocking me down with each of your lies Leaving my emotions bruised and battered You knew how I felt about you Yet your lies showed you didn't care I had no idea that being with you I had to constantly share In my face, fate had us together Behind my back, it was you and her I thought we had a real friendship Now I'm unsure at how I was so sure The trust you earned is forever broken Losing sleep because so is my heart In some way, I thought we'd always be But now, this is the time where I must part Tears no more because I'm all cried out Wondering why I'm so easily betrayed Full of doubt and lead by pain A bitter woman his actions have made Tired of believing in liars Whose truths come across as real Words doused in harsh Novacane My emotions are numb and I can't feel I don't want to give up on love But it seems like my only choice Love hates me and I don't know why There's nothing to say; I have no voice I hope you had your fun with me Destroying me with every single lie I hope you take much pride in Watching the last of my innocence die.
