The pain of truth

Fighting back my tears Feeling the fear Painful rejection Powerful deception Read between your lines Your lies intertwine Making the truth obscure And my heart less pure I’ll get up off the ground And quit letting your memory shove me around All the time I wasted waiting here for you Knowing now that you were untrue Guess it was a lesson I needed to learn Love is something I can not burn On someone who abuses They’re mind With false pretences and acts that are unkind I’m looking for so much more A beautiful woman Not a chore She’ll be brave And get my love I’ll look back And see there was No us that I can speak of
