You Never Saw Me

by ibelievedhim   Apr 8, 2022


You never saw me, so how could you love me?
You're just a boy who thought he would hurt me
I gave you all of my love; I gave you all of my light
You've gone and broke me, so I don't shine so bright

Lying in bed, angry tears in my eyes
I gave you truth, and you told me lies
I gave you my heart; I gave you my body
I put on my make up, but you couldn't see me

I'm right over here, smiling and laughing
You grab my waist, and we start dancing
You come up behind me and whisper "I love you"
My heart's doing flip flops; this can't be true

Why did I share this last piece of myself?
I thought you were for me, not someone else
You thought I was stupid; you thought you were cool
I promise you lover, you're the one looking like a fool

Safe in your arms, I'm falling asleep
Beautiful memories that you can keep
It didn't take long, you got what you asked for
I'm bruised and I'm bleeding, everything's sore

Rub more salt in my wounds, give me some more pain
Give me a reason for the ice flowing through my veins
I've put up these walls, no you'll never come in again
Now that I can see where your mind has really been

I was a pretty pink flower just starting to grow,
You tore my petals and buried me in the snow
I was a flower blooming in front of your eyes,
Now this flower is dead, are you really surprised?
