At a loss for words
My heart a mass of splinters
The sleepless nights of guilt
Over what I’d done to you
At last letting myself trust you
Only to find you’d been lying too
I offered more than I had to give
Trying to make amends for my wrong
Love gone wrong; I’d been scared
Of you, a friend, because I thought
I’d done you wrong, broken your heart
But it wasn’t I who was betraying trust
My heart has been ripped apart
With no reason – there was no reason –
No comprehension of why you had to lie
How long have you held me at a distance
When I had bared you all of my soul
Thinking after all this I could trust you
