The Perfect Illusion

You said you would be there for me
for forever and always
Now I stand here, broken
looking for you guidence
but all I'm left with is a memory.

You said it would all be okay
that you'd be here to protect me
but as I lay here cring,
reaching for your comfort
I begin to lose hope
in what you once promised me.

You said you'd always love me
that nothing could break that bond
you said you couldn't live without me
that without my love you'd die,
now tell me why I'm the one
begging for the end
all to rid myself of the pain
from the emptiness crushing my heart

How can you say you ever cared?
That your love was never ending?
But now that you've left me for dead
I see that all you did was create
