Stand Down

Keeping score

You were right

I knew you were

and my lies have all been selfish

and those lies have all but died

but the secrets are what I'm left with

I see your face, your trusting face

and the mask I forced upon it

it says you love and you forgive

but it reads "You fucked me and you know it!"

and I can't believe the deciet we weave

one word, one silk, one strand

you hurt me more, so I hurt you worse

and the hurt is all we have

but you got fucked and I got fucked

will it ever matter who got even

so I stood down, and you stood down

and split nothing up the middle.
