No Reward For Honesty
I told the truth and lied to myself
Both at the same time
I'd love you forever
Through sickness and health
And still you won't be mine
What am I to do
I expose my bloody past
Attempting to be trusted
Pulled from the salvage
Placed at your feet
Broken down and rusted
I lied cause I showed you
And broke a promise to myself
Hoping for acceptance
But now I sit alone
In the dark with all my past
Begging for forgiveness
