Lies

I thought I'd be free with you by my side
and I was
they were my happiest of my glorious days
and I'd never brought myself to hate them

But then I was blinded
couldn't see
that the pain afterwards would be so much more painful than those memories combined
Enough to wonder
were those happy moments really worth the pain at the end
and that's when I've decided to discontinue loving

At first I trusted those words you spoke so freely
but now I never want to learn to love again
instead I conclude:

All those promises you've sworn you'd kept
all those promises that never existed
promises that were never there
they all fit into my little world
