Never The Same

before you left
you swore to me
you'd forever
be there for me

but in the end we're all
just chalk lines on concrete
drawn only to be washed away
you never could keep promises

promises you've made to me
broken like a finger nail
a piece of me ripped in two
and you're never really there

I'd rather hate you for everything
you are then love you for something
you'll never be able to be in my life
never the same, not anymore

you made your choice, could have stayed
to work things out instead you walked out
first contact from the pansy that's you
has been 15 and 20 years too late coward
