::Because I Believed::



Devalued, Degraded, Devastated
This is what I get
Loving you
My pain is expended
My hurt ripped me raw
I'm bleeding inside
All of because
I believed.
I vowed to never trust
Trust cuts you up
Scars you inside
Beats you without remorse
And I believed
I believed in you

I built myself up
Preventing my fall
Sat in my thick stone shell
My walls were my haven
My sacred place
And for you I slowly tore them away
I extended my hand and you carried me out
And dropped me.
You dropped me.

I fell from my savior
I fell from myself
I fell until falling was useless
You had told me you loved me
Why couldn't I scoff as I always had?
You told me you cared
Where did my emotion rise from?
It had never been there before

How could I have allowed myself passage
Into this forsaken world
of pretend emotion and apathy
My beliefs had always pulled me through
I let go of them, all for you
And you shoved me away
Broke me into bits
And ran away from the scene
Laughing at the pieces
I tried so hard in glueing together
Now I'm broken beyond shattered, again
This is what I get
Because I believed in you
