Playing Cupid Doesn't Work

Why would I lie to you?
I told you the truth.
Why don’t you understand?
You shouldn’t need proof.

I said I was sorry,
But apologies’ weren’t enough.
You said you still loved me,
But I caught on to your bluff.

Forget everything that I said;
I didn’t mean one single thing,
I never meant to hurt you,
Or give you the pain that I bring.

Why am I so shallow?
How could I have been so stupid?
Why couldn’t I be happy with us?
Instead of trying to play cupid.
