Faith in Demons

by Aerie Gerard   Aug 28, 2011


When we first met, I looked in your eyes and I just knew,
That I will cry, but I'm gonna try my best for you.
Sure enough, as time passed, you took all I had and you pushed me away.
But deep in my soul, I knew we would meet again one day.
You found your answers in someone bound to break your heart,
I didn't know it, but you deserved to be ripped apart.
I ran far away, I told myself without you, life's gonna be easy,
And you came crying back to me, said that you were gonna stop breathing.
When other girls stole your heart, you never ever wanted me near.
And then when you're sad and lonely, you insist you need me here.
But I was stupid for a second, which sucks, after all this time.
To believe that I could really ever, REALLY call you mine.
You took my dignity, and pushed me to do the things I'd never do,
I can't believe I trusted, actually cared about you!
Because I swore I'd never hit you, cheat you, hurt you, make you see,
That all the monsters that you feared were never present inside me.
Such a beautiful demon you are, what lies I thought that I fit in,
But now I know what you really are, and I'll never go there again.
I was here to push you up, in the rain to see the stars,
But how dare you give away everything I thought was ours!
So get back, don't you dare touch me, these stupid scars are here to stay.
But at least I learned a lesson that I won't soon forget some day.
That there's no passion, no more hatred, no screams that can compare,
To when you try to mend a person who lied about how much they care.
