You drove a dagger into my soul,
but the evidence is clean.
I guess nobody understood
exactly what I mean.

You used to call me beautiful,
but I guess it's all a lie.
Now the words that made me float,
shot my down from the sky

I just want to have you back,
I want to hold you in my arms.
I recall you said the same,
but it's these words that brought me harm.

I've cried myself to sleep so many nights
longing for you.
I felt like such an imbecile,
thinking this love was pure and true.

To trust a feeling so blindly
leading my wandering soul to hell,
will the slicing, splitting pain heal?
Only time will tell.

You played me
like an all-to-willing ace up your sleeve.
How was I to know, I would be the one --
the one you would undeniably deceive?

The pain burns my heart like acid.
I replay the words in my head.
My heart may still be beating,
but on the inside?

I'm dead.
