We Both Lied
I hate being so alone
But it makes me feel better just to know
That I'm still on your mind
From time to time
And as horrible as it may be
I want you to feel alone like me
Don't tell me how I should feel
Because most of the time nothing feels real
Did I make it that easy to walk away?
There was nothing I could say
To make you stay
Here beside me
Believe me, I tried...
And I have to wonder
Am I the only girl like this?
Who wished for just one more kiss
Thinking it would change your mind
Not this time
Because I'm letting go
I swear I won't let this get to me anymore
I promised I'd fall in love again
Move on with my life
Give things another try
...
Well I lied
Love lied...
