TRUE FEELINGS


Why do I feel alone when I'm not 
I don't want to be faithful because I think I'm being played
No matter how many times someone says they love you 
You are always going to find out some shit 
 
I don't want to go to bed thinking I'm not the only one 
You talk to 
I swear I have better things on my mind than to sit and wait for you
To love me the way you say you do 
 
I don't want to wake up the next morning not knowing if you found someone else 
Tell me but don't lie to me 
It hurts because no matter how much you say you love me I will always second guess it because I'm tired 
Tired of getting hurt. I refuse to be hurt any longer even though you said u won't hurt me it's still the feeling of being replaced when you don't know 
 
But these dreams don't just happen they're almost real 
They feel real they make me feel I can't trust you 
I refuse to live my life like that 
I'm telling myself if it was still up to me I would be gone 
So gone these dreams I have will never come back because I know I can 
Sleep at night not worrying about if you're stepping out on me or playing me like a fool right in my face. 
 
But as I moved here I seen your true colors
I seen all the lies 
I'm tired of it
Action speaks louder than words but I tell you I'm not going to sit around and 
Be nobody fool I'm me and if you don't like me the way I am than so be it I will
