the liar

well, i never lied
i never swore
i always held my breath
 
i changed everything i am for you
until theres nothing of me left
 
i gave up my friends
i gave up myself
and where did that get me
 
with a broken heart, waiting for you
how selfish can you be
 
youre gonna throw this all away
because you’re too stubborn to hear the truth
you are wrong
 
im always here, im never gone
i stay here all day waiting for you to come home
 
i feel betrayed, full of disbelief
after everything ive done
you cant see anything ive done for you
 
love isnt something you learn how to do
its a privelidge you earn from the one you want
 
i let you in, and you tore me down
im so numb i cant even feel my own heart
beating or not... inside of my chest
 
i know what is true and thats everything i did for you
i never spoke a lie, and you always make me cry
 
but why am i crying for someone who doesnt care
i deserve so much more than this
NOBODY deserves to be treated like this
 
so, if im the “liar” then what are you...
