Lesson in Lies
And I tried to find comfort
in those words you sold me
But I went broke with the lies
And you are not here to hold me
And now i have nothing
No you or false meaning
I thought they were truth
But like fairytale endings
I got caught up,
Caught in your eyes
They spoke something to me
-Didn't know they were lies
and suddenly, the tale I bought into changed
It was solely a fable
and I was turning the page
I would learn a lesson
That "happy" was on me
and I couldn't rely on
well…. Anybody.

Never again would they hold hands and race through the
Alone in solitude I sit and cry,
Thinking of true love I let pass me by.
Tears flow down the cheeks you used to touch,
Pain
