You spoke of shadows
Long shapeless forms
Faded swatches across my walls
Nothing more than tricks of light
Like you
A golden illusion
A woman who would love me
I should have known...
You're right
I did get caught
With my heart in my hands
My fault
Too much hope
Too much faith
Faith that didn't belong to me
Borrowed from you
From the light in your eyes
And the words you spoke
I thought you meant them
Maybe you did
Then
But then is long gone
And I'm stuck with now
Empty
Useless
Now
So I said some things
True things
False things
Nasty things
I felt better
That you felt worse
Is that what makes me the villain?
If so
Then so what
I would rather be the nemesis
Than the dupe
I've already played that game
And lost
And lost
And lost
So, there's a new game now
I know the rules
You don't
We'll see how far you get
When I set the tone
When I am who I am
Not who you think I should be
The ride has already started
And no one gets off...
