Survive
I never thought it would work out like this.
I never thought that you would be one of them.
One of those men so typical in our society.
One of those men who only want one thing.
You were the nicest person I knew.
Always had a smile on your face,
Arms always open for a hug.
You’re talent on stage shines through to all,
You’re style can’t be beat.
Always clean cut, dressed nicely and fun.
You play the guitar,
Enjoy video games,
And you know how to throw great parties.
You were my shoulder to cry on,
My shelter from the world.
You were the one I knew I could go to.
Now I don’t know what to do.
Looking in your eyes feels like staring into nothing but lies.
I don’t see the man I fell in love with.
I don’t see the man that I love to see smile.
I don’t see the person I thought I knew.
I see a liar.
I see a cheater.
I see someone who pretends.
I see someone who knows how to talk,
Someone who knows how to get what he wants.
I thought you were different.
I hoped you were different.
I thought you genuinely cared,
But now that I found out the truth,
My emotions I can’t bear.
I love you,
I hate you,
You make me sick, you make me smile.
I’m tired!
I can’t keep fighting…
I can’t keep going on like this.
I hope some day you’ll figure this out,
You can’t do this anymore.
I want back the person I loved,
The one with life goals in store.
I want the friend, who held me when I cried,
The friend that makes me smile.
The friend that I know,
Will stick around for a while.
Even though it hurts,
I know that I’m alive.
I will fight...
And I will be fine,
I’ll find a way to survive.
