You lied |
You lied
Spiderwebs enchant themselves around the auburn crown of her hair.
They love to be there, waiting for their opportunity to attack.
In the shrouded room, there is no understanding the ways of nature.
This is the one and only thing, the only place, the only time.
There is nothing outside, it is all inside, in the darkened tales.
This is the only way anything can ever be real, here inside.
You lied when you said that you loved me more than anything.
I don't know why, how I could have ever believed you.
Maybe I just wanted it so bad that I couldn't think of looking back.
Maybe I just wanted to believe, just wanted to be loved.
I was stupid.
You are no more than a bitter pang in my heart now.
I rarely think of you anymore, and when I do, it's with disdain.
You robbed me, not of purity, but of innocence. I was so wrong.
Spiderwebs dangle in my face, but they're not from you, no.
They dance on my forehead, they whisper in my ears.
They tell me I was stupid to end this thing with you and me.
They lie.
If you were still here, I wouldn't be. My life was so close to gone.
You destroyed so much of me I thought I'd never be able to come back.
It was so hard, but knowing it would be in spite of you made it easier.
Now I know it wasn't you. It was just the girl in me wanting to grow up.
She grew up. Without you.
Now all that's left of you is this bitter touch in her heart, so small.
She'll think twice before she tries again, but what you did can't stop her.
She's not afraid.
