No More Trust
I assumed we would be together
That’s what you falsely led me to believe
But now I’m left here with heartache
Betrayed, dishonored and deceived
I must admit, I was convinced, because you talk a good game
But now that I need you the most, you’ve turned your back and walked away
I let my guard down too soon, and opened up to you
So determined to make you happy that I played the fool
I unknowingly surrendered myself and gave you the right
I submitted to you so completely, that I gave you control of my life.
You were so visionless to the fact that I gave you my heart
My most precious gift and you tore it apart.
It seems that you’ve remained unwounded
And I’m left here lonely and baring the scars
Scars that were cause by the lies that you’ve told
Now you’ve found another and I’m left out in the cold
And yet I often wonder, if you tell her what you told me
Or if you’ve unlocked you heart and let your love run free
The same love that you promised, to me and only me
I guess the signs were all there, but I was too blind to see
But still it’s not easy to pick up and move on
Because for your lying words and deceiving touch, I often still long
I gave you all I had to give, and still it wasn’t enough
Maybe time heals all wounds
But never again will I trust
