mercy me.

the absence of your thoughtful lies,
saves my heart from turning black.
the sorrow in your meaningless cries,
please, save your tears for a more believable crime.
the words slipping off your tongue,
save your breath because this time im done.
the look in your eyes when you tell the truth,
ill miss that forever,
just like ill miss my youth.
you know?
that thing you stole from me?
right in front of my eyes,
as if i couldnt see.
i was blinded by the light your "love" gave off.
just to find out my love wasnt enough.
i wish you could have just left that night.
i wish you never pretended to be mine.
i wish you would have went away,
and came home to me a different day.
i wish you would have followed your dream.
i wish i wasnt part of your skeem.
i wish i could just have my life back,
and most of all,
i wish i could forget about our past.
