Evening shadows come and go and nights mean nothing anymore,
As faces stop to say hello, I’ve become as hollow as I was before.
You sullied my dreams with your black words of disloyalty,
When you crippled my spirit with your heart of treachery.
And now how I wish I could erase the part of me that cared for you,
How I wish tomorrow could kill my memories of what I’ve been through.
It hurts so much, the secret of your dishonesty,
The heartbreak you conferred in those words you thought I’d never see.
And now as I sit on the rocks of sympathy, reminiscing of days passed,
I try to hide away my feelings for a face that wore so many masks.
The sky laments and raindrops scatter dewy kisses on me,
Trying to appease the burning ache within my heart,
But you killed my hope and stifled my faith with your infidelity,
And left me empty with nothing inside.
You gave me life when I saw you smile,
But left me stranded on the shore of broken dreams
As you sailed away with my heart as the prize.
And now I’m standing in the fading distance of you and I
Drowning in regrets of the things you said to me,
Those gift wrapped words that were only meant to deceive,
The ones you made my heart erroneously believe.
