Love Like A Man

by Jess   Dec 20, 2011


You lie like a boy,
and love like a man.

why in the world,
am I so lost in the game?

I've been hoping you will change,
been wishing this pain would wash away.

I felt my heart break,
when I heard the honest truth.

It shattered, and call me crazy,
but I liked it.

I felt like I could feel,
after all this damn time.

It's not your fault,
I won't point fingers.

I've been living every second,
knowing I was to blame.

I'm happy baby,
even if you lie every single day.

As long as you keep loving me,
like a man.
