You Said...

You said you'd never hurt me
Said you wouldn't cause me pain
I hoped you were telling me truth
And our love would sustain.

You said I was your life
I told you that you was mine too
I never thought you'd leave
Never thought you'd say adieu.

But one day you returned from work
Said you needed to get out
You didn't give a reason
Just went and left me to shout.

I cried for days, I cried for weeks
I could not live alone
It was like you'd left without a trace
You wouldn't even answer your phone.

One day as I wept into your pillow
I realized what I should do
I realized how I could get over
the man, my love, so true.

I took a rope from my shed
And walked towards the park
Hoping no one could see my fate
I killed myself in the dark.

Slipping into paradise
I left the world behind
Left the rope around my neck
Peace my soul did find.

My body was found the next morning
You found out in the news
You felt the biggest pang of guilt
On your heart I left a bruise.

Your other lady was pregnant
You'd left me to be with her
Not knowing how messed up I would be
How much my life would be a blur.

So when you cradle your new born child
I hope you just for a moment remember me
Remember my life was ruined coz of you
But remember my soul is now free.
