Back at The Beginning

by *fading*away*   May 20, 2006


Just a flicker of sympathy replaced by a smile
Reassuring and yet sad and sorrowful in its own way
I can see through all your lies and pretence
I can't believe I trusted you, only to be robbed of
The secret I had held so close and dear to my heart
I told you everything that I held in my heart
Kept my fears at bay and hoped that you would understand
I took you in, and let myself believe that somehow you would care
Guess it all just ended when you looked away and smiled
You said you cared, that you'll treat me like a friend, not like a freak
But now you are avoiding me like I got the plague
Life has been hard for me, I can't deny that fact
But in all this misery, I've managed to keep my hope afloat
I had always believed in destiny and fate, the stars and the moon
I thought that I was destined to walk this path all alone by myself
Guess I wasn't too far away from the truth
Because now I'm back at square one, feeling the same way
You betrayed all that was left of me, and now I'm nothing
But just a walking shadow, lost in myself yet again
You told me that someday things would get better,
And I knew then that you didn't really care
You saw me as a girt to be pitied,
A girl you would have to sympathize with
But see, I told you from the very beginning,
I just needed you to believe me, and understand
You don't have to act like I need assurance from you all the time
Don't have to act like you care when all along this has just been all a reckless game
You want out; you don't want to be a friend who I thought I could trust
Instead you stole everything I knew and understood,
Leaving me back in the beginning
With nothing to believe in, nothing to call my own
And you have disappeared, leaving a wound in my heart that can never heal
