      The craziest thing I ever heard
      Was you saying you loved me
      The stupidest thing I ever believed
      Was that I was your only
      The biggest mistake I've ever made
      Was lying in your arms
      The love you give me is just an afterthought
      To the betrayal that you've shown me
      If you could, I know you would
      But you're too much of a coward
      You know you should but you're
      Too blinded by your pride
      You taught me the meaning of shame
      And you treated me just the same
      As the losers that came before you
      I lost myself there for awhile
      I lost myself in you
      But now I'm back in control of the
      Emotions I let run free
      Never again will you know me
      Like you knew me
      Never again will I let you
      Hold me like you held me
      I know the truth in your embrace
      It's a bitter pill to swallow
      But swallow I will and maybe one day
      I can fix what is now so hollow
      And have faith in tomorrow-

The night is my companion
The solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here
And not be satisfied?

Some lessons in life are very bitter. You've expressed that very well, Leslie!
