Drive

by AllHailTheHeartbreaker   Nov 19, 2004


I was still unsure
Why he had lied
And why he'd kept the truth from me
So I went for a drive.

I thought of what my friend had said
About how he hadn't told me
I'd thought that he wasn't "like that"
And I couldn't understand how I didn't see.

I wanted to tell him: "I'd expect something like this
From anyone but you
Why didn't you tell me about what you did
By keeping secrets you were being untrue."

In the beginning he led me to believe
That we were both pure
But now that I've heard this rumor
It seems he failed to mention what he did with "her".

So the next day
After my drive
He found out that I knew
About his little lie.

"I know what you've been acting differntly
In so many ways."
Shrugging my shoulders
I tried to pull myself out of the daze.

"You know about her."
He'd said enough
"But I want you to know that we didn't go 'all the way',
And we were never in love."

I told him that he'd broken my heart
And that it wouldn't be easy to cure
But if he was telling the truth
It could be done, I was sure.

He swore that he hadn't
Done what my friend had said
And I let him put his arm around me
And kiss the top of my head.

That night, after all was resolved
Promises were made and loose ends were tied
I still needed some time to think
So I took a drive.
