At one end there's a fork in the road.

A stolen whisper wraps me up in the moment.

I untangle my limbs from the soft sound of your lies.

Self-esteem tells me you're undeserving.

A bitter understatement for the years gone by.

 

Trusted friends turned into strangers

The clock has mixed up faith and lust

Pray, love, don't ever ask for me again

 

Promises keep questions shy

Believers chew on empty lies

And hear you me I was naïve

And I fed on your hypocrisy

 

Cutting up the social letters

I let go of things that mattered

All for you and you for nothing

So let’s just die alone

 

Frantic in the realization

That this was never what claimed

Help, love, take back all of my regrets

 

You've found I'm not the selfless one

That I have faults, and I'm someone

To spin the wheel down this two way street

 

Stories bind the book of my life

Touched with sugar-coated lies

One night stands are what you stand for

But I felt different from all those lost girls.

 

Find your wind

Take your seat

Break her down

She's just like me

I like your use of words, like "believers chew on empty lies"

Wow that was amazing, brings me to tears. Maybe its because it feels like what I'm going through, but still you wrote it wonderfully. Thank you for sharing.

This was never what you* claimed.

My bad, folks :)
