Lies

You told me a lot of things.                                         .
You said that you loved me.                                       
How could you play me like that?                             
I gave you my all.                                                      
You had my heart in the palm of your hand. 
And you decide to squeeze all the love out.
You said we’ll be together forever. 
I loved wit my whole soul. 
Whenever you were by my side.
My heart blasted off to nowhere. 
In my arms is where you should be.
I did everything I promised you.
Then I go and see you cheat.
What did I do to be played like this?
I was there where when you were down. 
I pulled back on your feet. 
I held you in my arms to stop the tears.
I made that frown disappear.
I was always there for you.
I guess you couldn’t do the same for me.
All you cared about was you.
You never cared about me.
I gave you all I could. 
All you wanted was the money and the gifts.
I wish I could go back and stop myself from falling in love.
You knew how much I cared.
But you still went and did me wrong.
I saw you with him. 
And you still denied him.
You even denied me in front of your friends.
What’s wrong with me I gave you my heart.
For you to take care of.
But you decided that it wasn’t important 
You said you didn’t want to hurt me but you kept doing it.
Over and over again.
Why do you lie?
I love you girl.
And I hate myself for loving you now.
I always loved.
But you always lied.
You lied about the dude I caught you with.
I hope someday you’ll see how it feels to be lied to from the love of your life.
Because your no longer going to lie to me.
I’m gone for good this time
I’m tired of your lies.
GOODBYE!!!
