Depressed Storm

Tonight lightning strikes
They say it never strikes twice
But it does
When the lightning is your lies
After two years I still see your green eyes
I was broken by your lies
Yet I'm the one that I dispise
I didn't deserve this
But to me you are still perfect
I'll admit I'm worthless
Because I have to act heartless
In order to hide this
I'd give it all away
To have you for eternity
Because you're all that assures me
You're worth all that hurts me
Do you feel the rain
Its all the tears that I've cried
Since the day my happiness died
Do you hear the thunder
Thats the sound of my heart breaking
After two years I'm still aching
And all this time I've been faking
Do you feel the lightning
Its the pain you caused with all your lieing
Its hard to believe all the lies I was buying
You are still in my heart
But my heart is now this storm
Its cold, no longer warm
Tornados forming
Lightning striking
Relentless hailing
Thunder crackiling
Nonstop raining
And you are all its attacking
This is the storm you brewed
That my life barely withstood
Just take my hand
Give me the love you showed in the past
Like that night at the trackmeet
Remeber how we wanted that moment to last
And when we danced in the pouring rain
How everyone thought we were insane
Then everything went to hell
When your lies came
Damn lightning struck again
I can feel the electricity travel through my skin
Charging my hunger
I will love you forever
