Don't you know what love is?
Or must I teach you this,
that love is more than a feeling,
more than just a kiss...
You said you wouldn't
But you did
You broke my heart
Then ran and hid
You said you loved me
More than I'll ever know
You said you'd never leave
So tell me, why did you go?
You misused the word love
Because love never leaves
Maybe you meant lust
and the blinding web it weaves...
Love is a timeless force
Never loses it's power
it doesn't fade away
or have it's golden hour...
If you loved me then
You still would now
You said you loved me
And now I am asking "how?"
I knew I shouldn't believe you
That you really didn't know...
But after awhile I trusted you
That's the time you chose to go.
So for future reference,
Never say I love you,
Unless you love them forever
Or else heart break will ensue.
Was I there to be your toy?
The one you showed to your friends?
Or were you embarrassed of me
And that's why you caused it to end?
Was I really important
To you or was I not?
You always said "I love you,
I think you're very hott!"
And that was it, no kind words
No reassurance of time
Now I think you violated me
And that lying was your crime!
Don't even say it...
