I believed in fairy tales, I guess I believed in lies.
I believed in hopelessness, because I saw it in her eyes.
She has a strong desire for her wants.
I have a strong desire for my needs.
She just keeps on chopping down
while I keep on planting seeds.
You say you're not happy, so leave if you must.
Because the more you want your independence
the more I feel a lack of trust.
You think it's just getting old.
But I see it starting to rust.
You said always believe in love at first sight,
I do, I just call it lust.
I tried to sing the songs, she tried to do the dances.
She thought the first time should be a charm.
I believe in second chances.
I cried an ocean of tears, she cried a lake.
She called it a darn good try.
I call it a mistake.
She calls it too hard to deal with, I call it the past.
She says the future's to far away.
I can see it coming fast.
I thought the cup was half empty,
but that's no reason to throw away the cup.
She thought I was blind, because I had my eyes covered up.
She tried to forfeit, I tried to finish the game.
She never would admit she was wrong.
I never would take the blame.
She wanted to find something else, she just didn't know what.
Now she calls herself free. I call her a slut.
You say you're not happy, so leave if you must.
Because the more you want your independence
the more I feel a lack of trust.
You think it's just getting old.
But I see it starting to rust.
You said always believe in love at first sight,
I do, I just call it lust.
I really liked this poem..
