Good While It Lasted

You know when things

Are too good to be true

You better believe it

Or it will ruin you

It just takes one word

Or a simple conversation

And it blows up in your face

Without warning or reservation

Expect the unexpected

How we should face each day

Because in just a few seconds

Things can go the other way

You make a decision

That you think is wanted

But you know deep down

It will just leave you haunted
