You broke my faith, you stole my heart

My innocence you tore apart

You ruined my love, you stole my trust

All because of one nights lust

Now who am I they might ask

Truth is I live behind a mask

I am wise beyond my years

Knowledge filled with groping fears

You took my ignorance, you twisted my youth

You stole my beliefs and tossed me the truth

Life is not the blissful dream that I saw

You made sure you left me with a flaw

Now I am ruined for life and what I dreamt to be

Your disregard took happiness away from me

I live now only for what could have been

I love now only what I have once seen

I am what I was, but will never be again

I am what you left of me, broken and sore

I would like to wipe you out of my past

So I could be what I was before
