The Bad Deal

by LostLikeTearsInRain   Mar 28, 2007


My eyes are sore
So I keep them shut
I wish our love was a movie
So I could scream "Cut!"

Maybe what I need
Is a death defying stunt
Maybe then
I could end my hunt

Would that get your attention?
Putting my life on the line?
You know I'd do it in a second
If it meant calling you mine

But when I stop and think about it
I've been risking my life for a while now
But I know what you're thinking
"You've been risking your life for me how?"

Just open your eyes
You know, the ones clouded by lies
What kills me is knowing
I am the one you hate

Where'd your love go?
Was it a lie too?
Let me ask if it hurt you to say
"I love you too."

These thoughts make me sad
Along with the ones of you and this guy
They leave me breathless
And almost always make me cry

I wish my heart
Was as black as you make it feel
I should never have sold you my soul
Because that was one bad deal
