So lovingly locking us in a tight embrace
Unaware my heart is like ice, fire diminished
Embers all that remain, slowly smoldering, dying
Tell me, when did our love become a lie?
Emotions fast becoming artificial, counterfeit
Yet it seems, I'm still able to marvelously perform
Used to be such a dependable and honest lover
...Now the poster girl for misrepresentation
No one would ever envision the unflattering truth
And though it's hidden, inside I'm being torn to shreds
For although this is now nothing more than a rejected romance
Please believe, it was never in my intentions for you to hurt
So whenever you try to engage in a loving kiss
As I nonchalantly tilt my head slightly the other way
Or when you try wrapping me in your tender embrace
Only for me to casually slip away, please don't blame yourself
For all of our problems have arisen from only I
No fault of your's you've given nothing but love
Merely, it's time to finally come clean, finally admit
Why I'm no longer tender...is because I'm no longer in love
