The Sad Truth...


Your purity....

Was like a forbidden fruit, i just wanted to touch it

I just wanted to hold it, even though it was fragile

It wasnt yet molded

It was frigit...

Almost like it had been scrorn before

Like its interior had been explored

This wasnt unfamiliar territory to somebody else

But it was foreign to myself...

 

Your mind....

Was mixed up i almost got lost in it

Kinda like you were lost yourself

I tried to help

I wanted to know what you thought...

Maybe not all the time, but the times i were interested you fought

You fought against my trust, so i fought against you

I fought against your smile, and the coy things that you would do

I had to leave your mind, before i ran out of time to claim what was mine

 

I didnt want your purity, because that was worn

I didnt want your mind that was obviously torn

Between the two, i wanted you...

Better yet your body

I wanted to make you love me than leave me

I wanted to walk away with you needing me

I wanted you on your knees and pleading

I wanted to interrupt your healing

I wanted to bring back your feeling

You thought you could get way with going numb

Well a numb body is no fun

I had to open up your wounds, i had to get you while you were raw

And i sat there as i watched your body slowly unthaw 

I saw the hurt begin to hit you, to fill you again...

Could you honestly hate me?

I could have left you bitter, i could have left your soul to mindlessly wither

I could have left you cold like everybody else

I left you hot,,,,

Blood boiling for my toucch, hand yearning for my head

As much as you wanted me dead, you wanted me just as much in your bed

My job was to break you and i did

Wake up youre not a kid

You should pay attention next time

The world is filled with slimes, with attentions like mine

Maybe you'll learn

Too bad, you cant restart 

You let me get away with your virginity and your heart

I built you up just to tear you apart

He built her up just to tear her apart

You built me up just to tear me apart....

And it finally hit me

I could finally understand the sad truth

Isnt wasnt the fact that you broke me

It was the fact that i let you....
