betrayal


you both promised

i thought your words were gold

now i know why they call it a knife in the back

my heart feels like you've wrenched it out

the two that were once the closest 

have never felt so far

if i could make one wish

i would leave here for good

how did this happen

all ive done was love you both

now my insides are crumbling

while i put on a mask and smile through the tears

if not you, who can i trust

the lies and the deciept are too much to bear

please tell everything will be okay

please tell me it isnt true
