The Game Of Love

Frustration and rage burns through me Resentment eats at my soul You saw right through me Your betrayal took its toll I’m empty and guarded Shielded and bruised My wrists are bound By the lies that grew My hatred runs deep And I admire you still You can look right through me With daggers to kill Trademark your dishonesty Patent your disguise Within myself is truth I’ve discovered your lies Unwrapped them at Christmas And again for my birthday Lies you gave me as gifts For every fucking holiday The love that I held for you Is all but nil I’d bet all my money That you cry for me still Curled up in the fetal We were supposed to be equal But I was inferior Your betrayal far superior I’m disgusted when I look at you Ohhh how things change I thought that you loved me But it was just a fucking game
