Cheating

As I watched you walk away
I thought "where did I go wrong?"
I wanted to be with you
we were together for so long

I thought that we'd get married
and that we'd forever be
but as I worshipped the ground you walked on
you were completely lying to me

I knew that you were cheating
but I tried to block it out
and every night you'd ask me
"what are you crying about?"

And every night i'd answer
"don't worry, I'll be fine"
as I knew you were holding her
when you were supposed to be mine

I let you break my heart
365 times in a year
because being without you
was my biggest fear

One day you said you were leaving
and I thought that I would die
but I walked away with a smile
and didn't even cry.
