Lies , Deceit and Hurt

Lies , deceit and hurt By Lady Arabella I once thought you would never do me wrong again I had little faith as it was or trust in men You took my insecurities and used them against me Now I’m sat here questioning why I was too blind to see You’d threaten and take from me all I was proud to have in life You didn’t just stab me in the back with your knife I always supported you and was there when you needed me to be Yet I’m the one sat here wondering how you could do this to me You don’t say sorry or even acknowledge what you’ve done I may as-well have loaded the bullets myself in the gun I forgave you once when you played me like a fool And still was a friend to you ..how could you actually be so cruel? In all your mistakes I’ve always been there and supported you Checked in when your down like friends are supposed to do But you used and took advantage of that and led me down a winding path I hope at the expense of my feelings and pain you’ve had a good laugh Lies , deceit and hurt that’s all that’s left I’m the one picking up the pieces yet still wish you the best I wish I could purposely hurt you like you hurt me But you know that’s not who I will ever be Lies , deceit and hurt and yet you don’t even care How is that even fair ? You may have taught me a lesson which I needed to learn But you didn’t have to hurt me on purpose in return I always tried to understand you and figure you out Now all that’s left is nothing but doubt Did you even mean the words you said? So many questions left in my head Lies , deceit and hurt yet I thought you had changed I wish years ago we would have become estranged The saddest part is if I knew what I do now You know full well I’d have said no worries and worked it out some how I would have supported you no matter what and always been there Because even without your love as a person for you I still cared My loyalty ran that deep I just wanted you to be happy and for you to smile If only for a little while You didn’t have to do what you have done But I hope in the game you played you had fun Lies deceit and hurt I never deserved that To be blamed for something you lack When it was you all along who was playing a game Why was it me who you tried to blame ? Lies deceit and hurt Nothing but disconcert But don’t worry without your apology I’m doing just fine Sooner or later someone had to draw that line
