You Said Forever. What A Joke.

You are just so crafty, ya know?
The way you catch me, and hold me,
And quickly let me go?

There's this lyric that I've heard
And it's you down to the very last word

Your love's like
      an ocean
It's in and out.
    It's in and out.

I know what it's like to be broken before
I know what it's like to be forgotten.
I don't know why it hurts more with you gone away
And my defenses are beginning to soften.

I'm not that tough girl, and I'm not that strong kid
I guess that time has worn me thin
Because I am no longer able to be my own wall
And I am not comfortable in my own skin.

So thank you for wringing me out this week
And leaving me up to dry
I guess I'll have to go through the wash again
With all these stupid tears you made me cry.

And I know you're sorry you had to do that to me,
I can see it in your eyes
But what's done is done and it's too late now.
I'm through with guesses and one-word replies.

Because your love was like an ocean,
Engulfed me only at high tide.
But now I don't have an ocean anymore,
And that love will surely die.
