you told me i could sleep again
all through the night, you would be by my side
you told me you would always be my friend
no matter what happened til the end.
i tossed and turned in my sleep
your words couldn't comfort the pain etched so deep.
soon the nightmare became all too real
i lost all hope, i wished i wouldn't feel.
like a thousand claws ripped through my skin,
i felt thin and stretched
i was tearing apart from within
cheated and betrayed
by the one that had said:
''no matter what, i will alwas be here,
rest your head on my shoulder, we'll fight this together
like salt and pepper, for better or for worse
i'll even be beside you in the hearse''
it sounded corny, as if you made it uo a minute ago
i didn't care, inside, i was soaring through the air.
even if i were hit by a truck,
the pain i'd bear, if you would be there.
when reality struck, it was hard.
like a sucker punch, it went straight to the heart.
heck, it was worse than being hit by the truck
all i could do was curse my rotten luck.
my dreams, my plans shattered
my heart, ny ego, my pride torn and tattered
i would never feel anything ever again.
i'd rater; than living through such humiliation over again.
