The Cause

You said we would make it out the poverty together You didn't say you wanted an easy life You said you wouldnt kiss anybody else You said you would accept me for me You said you'd always wait too see the Los Angeles seas I wanted you too stare at the stars not Live infatuated by money Life looked like a beehive with no honey The living felt more like the undead You said you would be there for me It was all lies instead Your love became abuse I havent slept in days What was the cause of this There was no love I see now I fell again for the same I wont answer any phone call Best believe I'll throw it out the buses window You need me now when you have nobody I am stressed and never begged You took my heart and replaced it with Payphone cords life never seemed so boring I opened my palms that form a light Doves fly when I release the pressure Red lightening thunders between black and red clouds
