Empty Lies and Broken Promises

Do you know how tired I am?
How sick of all of this
This black cloud ever-hovering
Always there
Haunting my steps

No matter how fast I run
Or how long I wait in hiding
I won't ever be rid of you
You will always follow
Your memory
Your shadow

My insides are about to explode
I'm fed up with you
Actually I'm angry
I'm enraged
And sometimes I hate you

But then I remember
Those good times
Those smiles and laughs
The shared glances
The loving touches

Do you love me still?
Did you ever?
You said you did
You promised
Does that mean anything to you
Anything at all

That is all that is left of you
You are just the remnants
The remnants of a thousand broken promises
A thousand empty words

You told me you would be there
You told me this was not the end
There would be something left
Something more
You told me that I could have you

And that's all I've ever wanted
Just you
Just you
I don't know how many falling stars have heard my plea
But it seems they did not listen

I want you
You promised
And now it is clear
YOU LIED.
