When we first got together…I thought you said that you loved me…
There is nothing in your actions…that lead me to believe the truth in those words…
No not now…things aren’t as they used to be…something changed and it really hurts…
You told me that you loved me…then I realized that I wasn’t the only one…you said that to…

Trying to get back…the time that I wasted…the signs upon which your face was pasted…
As a phony…and as a cheat…I’ll say that you were marchin’ to a different beat…
For when I saw you…with him for the first time…I knew there was someone else…
Entering into your life…you chose to open the door…for a life of pain and regret…

Locked alone in a room with some other man…No one will ever have to know…
But now that I have found you…the real you…I realized that I didn’t want to be with you…
I didn’t want it to end…but you were telling me that I never wanted it to begin…
I didn’t know how to tell you…I had no idea it was me against you and your significant ex…

Inspired by a conversation I had with Cory

Trying to piece back a life…that I thought you completed…
only to find out you took all the pieces…that I gave you and mixed them all up…
A simple apology would’ve done…looking at the horizon…just another wave…
My heart is like an ocean of emotion…and with you it just washes away…

The memories we had together…seem as cold as the ice inside of your heart…
Sometimes people give you the cold shoulder…and something tells me inside you’re colder…
Didn’t want it to end this way…but you gave me no choice…
Standing shivering looking at the waves…wanting something to be different…

If you knew the feelings I had of you…All the sudden they all washed away…
Standing alone on the beach…thinking of what could’ve been…now standing alone…
A shattered life…another relationship to learn from…Then I ask was it worth it…
What I wanted to become a fairy tale…has become my worst night mare…

Inspired by a conversation Cory and I had, about writing to what was popular.
