Lost

She thought that he loved her
She thought they were fine
Didn’t know they were broken
Didn’t know she was blind

She believed in forever
She believed all his lies
Didn’t know what would sever
Didn’t know he was mine

He made promises that he knew
He’d never keep
Used to sneak out at midnight
Knowing she was asleep

Now he’s sitting in ruins
Since he’s lost all his worth
I despised keeping secrets
And he had lost me first
