Lines and Colors

sorry i havent been on this site in months

From first glance to first dance,
You stole my heart and held it in your hand.
With one move swept me off the ground,
Everything Id looked for is everything I found.

The rumors in my ear, a conscious never clear,
All the warning pleads of everything I fear.
I gave you my trust, I gave you my love,
Evidently it wasnt good enough,
I've seen the pictures, shes easy on the eyes,
You're too good to be true, yet I'm still surprised
I dine tonight by candlelight alone,
The worst part is that I should have known...

That once a liar, always so,
I sensed there was more to you, I didn't know,
But I ignored the lines, and drew in color,
Over all the signs that there was another.

Missed phone calls and worded texts,
I can smell your suspicion on the edge of your breath.
Do you think I'm that oblivious?
I wish i could miss when ignorance was bliss.

My ice cold burns, my bloody tears,
My reality has become my fears.
And it's all for nothing, my will is sold,
The worst part is that I should have known...

That once a liar, always so,
I sensed there was more to you, I didn't know,
But I ignored the lines, and drew in color,
Over all the signs that there was another.

I'm stricken down, sentenced to this bed,
With a dirty sweatshirt and a dying pen,
I'm still breathing, my heart beats again,
I know I may be broken, but I'm not dead.

I know I may be broken, but I'm not dead.
I know I may be broken now, but I'm not dead.
I know I may be broken, but I'm not yet dead.
I know I may be broken, but I'm not...

And I can sit here for hours, it won't change a thing.
Wouldn't it be better if we could cut the strings?
And I'd melt like a crayon laid out in the sun,
And you can keep your title as number one.

But my splintered heart cannot let this go,
It was as black as asphalt and as white as snow,
Your lips are honest whenever her eyes glow,
Lesson learned now I know...

That once a liar, always so,
I sensed there was more to you, I didn't know,
But I ignored the lines, and drew in color,
Over all the signs that there was another.

You're a liar...
Your heart was racing...
You told me you loved me....did you tell her too?
You're a liar...
I still have roses...
You still have lipstick...
I meant it when i said....that I loved you too...
But you're a liar...
And always so,
There's more to you, that I'll never know,
Over bolded lines white out the color,
Erase the signs, go be with your other.
