Your Lies

This is the third time you’ve messed with my head
I don’t know why I allow these tears to shed
You told me you loved me and it was forever
Now it seems it don’t matter that we’re not together
A year into our marriage you said you were done
I knew the new road was not going to be fun
Then 3 months later you said it was a mistake
That point I was pumped and my heart did wake
Now for a third time you have broke my heart
I should have known it was to good to be true at the start
You said I do during our vows and that was our day
Now 2 years in your trying to tell me you’re not gay
Each time though you tell me it’s because it’s a sin
Why is it that religion always has to get the win
You still say you love me, but your not in love with me
I wish the pain inside me you could see
Just like guys did to you, you played me like a game 
I’m learning every damn relationship for me is the same
You broke my heart, not once, not twice, but three times
I would have done anything at the drop of a dime
You pulled out my heart, stomped on it, and threw it out
Still you don’t seem to care even through my silent shout
My obsession with death I’m learning why it’s there
Cause everyone I love doesn’t really care 
They have their fun and they leave
Because they can’t fully believe
