The Notion of Devotion

when you slammed loves door said goodbye I thought the carousel of love had passed me on by living on my own I didn't think that I'd survive it swallowing the truth I fought to deny it weighed down by a mountain of fear it took months before the fog began to clear as time passed by I came to the conclusion love I thought was tried and true was just an illusion I was in love with the fantasy of love in love with the notion of devotion since we severed the ties realities opened my eyes I was in love with the notion of devotion I tried to change you turn you into a man all you did was ignore me sit on your can walking on eggshells nothing I did was ever right all we did was argue nit pic and fight what I ever saw in you remains to be seen loving you was a nightmare that destroyed all my dreams the day you walked out on me you set my heart free you were the cause of all my misery
