You Told Me

You told me
Everything will be okay
You know nothing
Don�t pretend you do

You told me
That you know how I�m feeling
But you don�t
With your delighted face
I cannot believe you

You can�t tell me
Everything will be okay
When it won�t
I�m being eaten up
Emotionally
Mummified in yourself
Blinded by the gift wrap
