Betrayal
1.12.04

Honestly, love, I waited for you long enough
With open arms and a bitter smile
An open heart, a bitter heart
My doubt is tearing me apart

But my doubts aren’t worth a cent
As I stand, wondering in my betrayal
You betrayed me first, love
They told me, those voices, that I needed to return the favor

And I laugh merrily through my tears
Running down my face
I listened to your words
But I never heard what you had to say
And I laugh merrily through my pain
Coursing through my veins
You listened to my words
But you never heard what I had to say

Why were we made this way?

Truthfully, love, I wasn’t content to give up easily
They pulled me down with lies and screams
Even then- not everything is what it seems
Do you doubt that I loved you until the very end?

Then- your doubts aren’t worth a cent
As you stand, wondering in your betrayal
Did I betray you, love?
They tell me, these voices, that it was my only choice, after all

<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
<---<--- catch me as i fall? [AA]
