Because You Left

What happened to love we had
How did it suddenly fade away
A quick reminder to my heart
With each and every passing day

Another promise to be true
You kept playing with my head
The thought of it, the pain of it
It hurts too much to be said

You told me things, you swore
Said your words wouldn’t break
Promised me you’d give it all
Yet again my heart does ache

What happened to all the vows
Those promises to never part
Your words became a dagger
And they cut through my heart

You pulled the floor beneath me
With all of the words you said
And I am falling farther down
With echoes in my head

Though you’re fine without me
It’s still hard to deny my heart
You tell me we could be friends
But that is so far apart

A million tears have fallen
For the pain you caused within
And I have no strength at all
From the state you left me in

I knew I’d take a fall that day
When you let go of my hands
But I know falling in this deep
Was not part of my plans

So here this is the end now
I can’t make it on my own
All because you left me
Dying…
Lying
here alone
