Chain of innocence

by Renee   Aug 28, 2004


I have something of yours but you have something of mine
what i took is only worth money but what you took is worth much more.
you took my innocence
i took your chain
you gave me pain when you played that certain game
the one where you say you love someone, one minute you do and the other you don't
but you still have them on a leash and if you wanted something
you'd take that certain piece.
you played all these games so you could keep that one name
the one that says you always get what you want
i thought i got what i wanted too
but instead i got played like a fool.
i always get what i want
but this time it's different
i cant just say I'm sorry and be forgiven
the only way i could get what i wanted
was by not doing it in the first place
but i cant have that so i need my own space.
you can give it your all but don't give me a call
because if you do, i know you wont catch me when i fall.
all i want to do is simply give this back to you
because i know what its like losing something you cherish.
you don't know how much something means to you until you lose it.
but after all that happened i don't regret anything between you and me.
my heart was set on you, but instead of loving you took advantage of me and i was vulnerable, but its all over and done with.
there are plenty of things that i really do miss; whenever i touch or look at this chain
i get a painstaking memory of you and that one little game.
i want to give this back to you, but i think if and once i do,
there's nothing left for me that's worth holding onto.
