Liar


I wonder what it takes to see, Into and through what i know is me. How could i be so reckless, Be so willing to be insecure and not end this? Is it possible to act the part but not fake the smile? Was it true that you made my life worth while? I dont know anymore maybe i never knew, Maybe lies are what i thought was true. I hate to be a liar and tell you that i dont care, But a liar still if i said that butterfly feeling was still there. It seems i wanted you way too much, And after a while my will just gave up. I cant get it back or i dont know how, But damn if i will let it make a liar of me now. I mean every word i say the moment it is said, But please dont let all that glory talk go straight to your head. Feelings change and so do people and maybe i changed just enough, To realize that i was being stupid as if having no experience didn't make things tough. I couldn't take it anymore i promise you i'm not truthless, But if not for everyone then maybe for me, the game of love is ruthless. Its not like i told you what wasnt true if there's a liar here it isnt me, I know my end and you know yours so in that there isnt a we. There were some glitches here and there but i thought them pre-game jitters and they would just wash away, But maybe i was wrong then too and thats why i cannot stay. It seems sudden for you yes, i know, But i get caught up in your words sometimes and its hard to let you go. But when i ask myself if i can see a future the answer is clear as day, How can i see a future with someone who cannot stay? They tried to tell me, but in my stupidity i did not hear, Thought maybe they were wrong and it wasn't true but i was wrong then too i fear. So i will say good bye not as i've done previously, this time i promise its true, So from now on no lies from either of us and no one can say i didn't love you.

I am a musician, a lover of interesting things, and a writer at heart. I have always found saying things to be easier when I put them into text and hope that my emotions come out through it. I love rain even though it messes up my hair and I find storms to be exciting and rarely feel afraid of them.
