Deleted
I'm deleting you
One memory at a time
And I'm hating you more and more
In each photograph
There's another lie
I should have known by the way
My smile was too big in every picture
By the not-a-doubt feeling in my chest
I should have seen in coming
By your tight grip on my hands
By the passionate way you'd kiss my lips
I should have known by the way
Everything felt so perfect
And how not a thing went wrong
Until it all did
No, I couldn't have known
There was no hint
Not even a trace of it
I couldn't have known that this was to be it
But photo by photo
Lie by lie
I'm pulling you from my chest
And you may scrape and claw scars on my heart
That will never heal the same...
But you're deleted either way.
