I Love You Was a Lie

Those three words
Are a death sentence
Enough to send 
Anyone in a panic


I said them too soon
And I didn't mean them
But you still sat there 
And received ‘em


I don't love you, baby,
I never did.
So kill me now,
Cause this is it.


I love you means nothing 
If you're saying it to someone you don't love
All you give them 
Is a lifetime 
Of pain and suffering


Now tell me, 
Which do you pick of the above?


Choose wisely, because
Pain comes easy
And goes so quick
But suffering tends
To stay and stick


I don't love you baby,
I never did.
So kill me now 
Cause this is it.


Believe me when I say 
You can kill someone with three words
Because ‘I love you’
Is the last words he ever heard


He didn't see it coming
The knife to his heart
Not literally, no,
His life had to stop before it could start
I left him
In a pool of his own soul
In the process of trying to 
Repair my own


I didn't say loving me was easy
Cause it never is
So give up on me now
Before you get killed


Because love kills,
That's a fact
And you should never love
Without tact


I don't love you, baby,
I never did
So kill me now,
Cause this is it.
