Nothing But Lies

You told me that you loved me. 
You promised me that you wouldn't cheat on me.
You said that you wanted to marry me.

You lied to me that you loved me.
You lied about promising me that you wouldn't cheat on me.
You lied to me that you wanted to marry me.

Why did you say that you loved me?
Why did you promise me that you wouldn't cheat on me?
Why did you tell me that you wanted to marry me?

Is it cause you love someone else?
Is it cause you promised someone else that you wouldn't cheat?
Is it cause your marrying someone else?

I can find someone that really loves me.
I can find someone that can promise me not to cheat on me.
I can find someone that I will marry.

I believed you all your lies.
I'm not going to believe them anymore.
I hope that one day in your life that you will come and
tell me why you did this.
