I Used to Love You

Your eyes shine like dull embers
As you try to remember
Our past together
When our love was forever

We lived in harmony
We could never be apart
Then our love turned violent
Was it like that from the start?

We cursed
We fought
We drifted apart
Our "love" was emersed
In the fake lies we wrought

I told you I loved you
When we said 'I do'
But it was more along the lines of
'I hate you!'

What I once loved about you
I find now that I detest

In fact, I must confess;
That to you, I could never be true

I lied to your face
I went behind your back
I begged you for space
Were you shocked to see me pack?

We drifted apart
I moved across town
To find a new place to start

I've found a new love
To one I can be true
I didn't really mean it when I said
'I love you'
