I Believed In You

Head-on collision in the cover of darkness,
you'd hit me like a speeding train.
My addiction - my most expensive drug -
it was always you who could bring me back.
Losing life came so naturally - but you were solid.
Miles away, I could feel you flush against me,
and I began to believe in you.
Nothing but your words could build me -
while everything else could destroy the world we created.
You faded, left me here,
with no means of connection.
My gravity left me stranded - my weight dropping to zero -
Because I was the fool.
Every word you whispered was a lie,
and fragment of something you knew I hoped for.
I was steady by your side,
Now show me an escape, where can I find you?
I've never seen the sun for truth,
not when the worst is yet to come.
Find me some time to turn around,
I just want to be myself again -
but your words have made this an impossible dream.
The world spins out of control,
I don't know my right from what's left wrong.
I need to find my worth, my earth, my trust,
But you've taken them all away.
Show me your face, my beautiful liar,
and I'll show you every scar I've got.
I'm just an empty shell,
And you left me here.
