Today is the day
Hearts are broken
The secrets unfold
and this deception is void
My eyes water with the truth,
Your eyes close with disappointment
And your heart ache
is thrown on to me
Just because you said what you wanted
doesn't make this right
My life is no longer mine
and this shame is there,
but left unspoken
Its presence haunts the room
And what once was beautiful to me
You have spoiled
and soiled my name along with it
Don't pretend your mistakes are mine
I learned from your faults
and I am better than goes to show
Don't pretend you know who I am
and how I feel
because compassion doesn't fit in your head
Don't pretend you know how this ends
because you've never experienced
my beginnings
I'm stronger than you
I don't belong to you.
