Brie

Deceptions

You said you loved me to cover up the lies

As if truth never lives but not every lie dies

A liability to you I was when I wasn\'t needed

You told me I was holding you back,

I thought you didn\'t mean it

I told myself it was okay, with tears streaming down

But even through that pain I never made a sound

Like a moth I flew into the light

How stupid I was to go not knowing what was really in sight

You gave me reasons to love,

Followed by reasons to hate

Maybe that\'s why I tried to erase it in the first place

You ripped my heart from my chest and never gave it back

I guess why these days they call it a heart attack

Today I don\'t miss you, but I hope you\'re doing well

 But even through it all my heart is still a little swell

My words are not threats, they are a promise to myself

You\'ve taken a lot, 

but not enough for me to say I have nothing left
