You make me feel like dirt
in a sea of utter cleanliness...
Am I nothing to you?
No. I am your everything.
I give you the courage to talk to her
I am the confidence in your kiss
The encouragement in the relationship
And the skill behind her bliss.
I am the lies you feed her
And the guilted voice within.
I am you first false love;
The beginning of the end.
In a sky black with lies
I am the only thing true
I hide within your mind
And live deep inside of you.
How could you ever forget me--
The one your life once revolved around?
How could you sweep me off my feet
And then throw me back to the ground?
My love for you will never fade
though I long that it should
And never will I forget you
Though often I wish I could.
I will not let you see me cry;
you will never know my pain,
But as you dance in the sunshine
I will be watching from the rain.
