I don’t know how to turn this pain into words
I don’t know how to tell you how much that I hurt.
I don’t know how to say that its all because of you
but I know its getting harder for me to say “I love you too”.
You always let me down
and I’m tired of all the tears;
all of these broken promises
are turning into fears.
The black streaks down my face should come as no surprise.
My throat is sore and my eyes have finally run dry.
Emptiness has proven my only reliable friend
and I don’t know how much longer that I can pretend.
I choke on the words
that I’m not brave enough to say.
I wont say how I really felt
when you lied to me today.
Every minute it gets darker and I try to hide;
all you see is the fake smile, not what is behind.
I’m tired of these repetitive games and lies,
but I don’t have the strength to tell you goodbye.
