When I first
placed my eyes on you
You gave out quite a charm.
To talk to you
I never thought
would do me any harm.
Little did I know,
how good with words
you really were-
to manipulate
everything you spoke
into my heart so unsure.

You created a picture
in my mind
of softness and truth
with intentions so unkind.
Sweet words you spoke
to make me think you cared,
I actually began to think
you would be there.

So quick for me to realize
that you were really false-
And now your silence
brings hurt and rage I pulse.
I promised myself
You wouldn't get to me
because all along
I never took you seriously.
You tried to tell me
I was wrong-
but you only proved
I was right all along.

Oh dear.
Yeah. All I can say is I know how you feel.
