Under Her Skin

She was so lost in him
She didn’t know how
Two months had passed
She had no idea it’d be this hard
She could feel the tears coming
Creeping under her skin

She walks alone
Invisible to the world
Clouded by past emotions
And misjudgments
Trying to forget him
But she can feel the tears coming
Creeping under her skin

How did it get like this?
Everything was planned
Everything was set
“Forever and ever, Babe”
He promised
She feels the tears coming
Creeping under her skin

Nobody knows the truth
She hid the promise well
But he had asked her that question
And she had answered it
Just like any girl in love would
“Forever and ever, Babe”
He wanted it with her
The rest of their lives together
Then he just left

And now the tears are coming
Seeping out from under her skin
Down her cheeks
A little bit of him leaves with each drop
But not even the biggest storm could erase him

“Forever and ever, Babe”
What does that even mean?
What did it ever mean?
