Your Lies, Your Tricks, Your Game

You lied to me like it wouldn't flood

Everything that we had built

Those nights you held me close

Like nothing could ever bring us down. 

 

But the water is filling my lungs, 

Even as you were running from me,

I'm sorry that it had to end like this,

But I was drowning in all your games

 

That pulled me into you like the riptide,

And now you've tricked me once again;

I love you and you're not by my side,

Because our flooded walls cannot mend.

  • the ending

    I'm finishing the story,

    How can it be true?

    I'm nearing the end;

    There is no future to see.

    It doesn't feel real

    But it is—it's all going to be over. 

    Months it's been since this world's been right,

  • didn't you know...?

    Do you know it hurts to leave me here?

    Bleeding, scarred, begging for someone to see,

    And you won't shed a single tear—

    Even though we've been through so much—for me. 

     

    Didn't you know?

    You trap me up

    Like you could chain

    My beaten heart away.

     

    You build your walls

    And sorrow calls

    To say that you have changed. 

     

    The prison now

    Stands still and dead
