Love Is Watching Someone Die...

Perfect was my life. I had what I wanted,
For once my life was something to be lived.
I ignored the warning bells in my head,
I followed the feeling in my heart.
Then I was lied to, a bombshell made of lead.
We were over before we hit the start.

'Forget him, believe me, I love you,'
Whispered words in me ear.
I forgot the most timely lesson,
'The best part of believe is the lie'
'There's nothing to fear'
Words spoken before I was left to die.

It's hard to believe,
You were ever part of me.
Now you barely spare me a thought,
Inside I'm broken and distraught.

Where am I to go now?
Who am I meant to go to now?
I don't know how to survive,
Without you by my side.

I watched as you whispered in her ear,
Your faces blended into a leer.
Cupid gave you both an arrow from his quiver,
What was I to you now? Chopped liver?

You and your girl were happy in bed,
While I was wondering if you cared if I bled.
You came to me, the next day bragging,
Did you even realise my arm was sagging?
You and her, intimately intertwined,
While my arm was being signed.

The real pain was relief from the agony of my dying soul.
Sixteen slashes, don't stop me now! I'm on a roll!
I sliced my wrist open again and tears mixed with my blood.
I'm not sure where they're from, but they're coming in a flood.

How could I let you in?
How could I let you win?
How could I put my trust in you?
I can't believe I didn't see,
Your love [lies!] were for a fee.
Now my main problem is,
How do I become what I was?
How do I let go of you?
