[One summer] of love is nothing but a dream
It is reality wearing a [mask] of [perfection]
A lie and a trap in which we allow ourselves
To stupidly fall into time and again
Like an [addiction]
A simple crush
That leaves us with a broken heart
A heart that has been [torn] from the chest
[Smashed] on the ground
And left [shattered] on the sidewalk of desire
Pierced through with the stiletto by the one we did [adore]
The one we thought we’d love forever
So now the dream is [broken]
And [scarlet tears] flow
From the [green eyes] of the fallen
The one with a broken soul
And all the while she has the nerve
To cry [fake] [mascara tears] and sing the [eyeliner blues]
She screams and rants and causes more pain
Blaming you for all her [mistakes]
And while you bleed out in the pouring [rain]
You promise yourself that [never] again will you fall in [love]
But deep down you know
That the promise you swore cannot last [forever]
And maybe one day
When golden leaves start to fall
You’ll forgive the mistake who broke your heart
Because on that day you’ll realize that
