Deception
I thought I knew you
but then you changed
and then I knew you not
It wasn't a surprise
I had been expectant,
waiting, I was waiting
I knew we'd have to part
But I didn't know I'd cry
I didn't know you wouldn't care
I thought it'd be the other way around
you, holding your arms out to me
me, my back turned on you
I hope you're happy
I hope you'll be happy
I hope you never know that I am unhappy
Goodbye.
