Promises

by MissSideways   May 13, 2005


I promised to never walk again
or at least until it was to walk for you.
but the phone would ring and I would run for it.
With a hope it was you.
A False Hope...

I promised I would never smile again.
or at least until I could smile because of you.
but everyone would question me.
I hated this attention. It reminded me of the misery I felt every single day.
So I smiled my big friendly smile.
A Fake Smile...

I swore id never be beautiful for anyone again.
or at least until I could be beautiful for you.
I wouldn't make myself pretty. I wouldn't bend over back wards for anyone.
Then they labeled me the misfit. So I resorted to a constant application of make-up and wore shorter than normal clothes.
A Fake Facade.

Isn't it funny...
It never IS you calling.
This False Hope is killing my mind
They hate the way I'm so friendly. You hate the way I'm so fake.
This Fake Smile is killing my body
They labeled me tart. You tell me Ive changed
This Fake Visard is killing my soul

Your a drug baby. I'm addicted.
These withdrawal symptoms have torn me apart, piece by piece.

I miss you
I need you
I love you

And without you I can't live...

So goodbye
