It feels like I’ve lost in a game
that I didn’t even have a turn.
My heart still bleeds
and eyes still burn.
I just didn’t know
that our feelings would never coincide.
I guess that’s my fault,
I kept mine hidden too deeply inside.
It seems after so many downfalls
all that’s left is rain.
Just a feeling of never ending pain.
How can you put yourself out there
to just be given back?
Matters of the heart just never seem
to be on the right track.
You spend your entire life making people happy
just to never be satisfied.
I miss the feeling of innocence,
not knowing the meaning of pain.
When there were no ulterior motives,
no heartaches to gain.
A friend is a friend
and one till the end.
Till something comes by
and the stakes are claimed.
Feelings of betrayal
but no one to take the blame.
They’ve covered their tracks,
they paved them with shame.
You build your life with dreams
to have them ripped away.
Taken by the bitter hearted
not knowing what they’ve started.
Well this is my story,
it’s sad but it’s true.
You can’t trust that person
unless that person is you.
