Foolish Girl

I’m a man of my word

He says as he leaves

I won’t ever hurt you

He says as my heart aches

I love you

He says as he drives off

Contradictions

That’s what I hear

Whenever you open your mouth

I’ve learned to fear

What follows after I

Is normally a lie

I don’t know what to believe

I don’t know what you mean

I know we said I love you

I know you meant it once

It doesn’t feel like that now

I guess I’m just a dunce

The foolish girl who believed

Someone could ever really love me
