Your heartfelt confessions based on these lies
Have driven one such as me to shout unheard complaints
When I see all you’ve done, and those people… spies.
Held back no longer by your merciless restraints,
I’m breaking free of this thing you call “love.”
Why can’t I see those allusions anymore?
I set them up so perfectly, but when push comes to shove
Of course, you’ll always win… shaking me to my very core.
This thing you call love, your adoration spent
I hate the way you made me shudder, I regret your beautiful face
That always showed up at all the right times and was never rent.
Always open to feeling and always so full of grace
What happened to the man that was once in your place?
You’ve changed so much from who you once were
Now I can only see you change from this to that – in a constant race,
You go so fast that now all you are to me is a blur.
Not only because of these tears I shed
Not because you’ve broken your vow
Not because you’re forever embedded within my head…
But because you’ve won. You Win. My love, take a bow.
These tears that I shed… they’re all for you
Every moment that passes as the clock ticks away
Nothing that you said – nothing that you said – was ever true.
No longer will I let you torment me, that I have decided today.

such passion behind these words. deep emotion, as well. my favorite part is probably the line "But because you’ve won. You Win. My love, take a bow." very well written.

It leaks emotion yet its rigid with flow. That means that instead of just an inkblot, you have an inkblot with a design. Great write, reads like you planned it out.
