Its hard to always hold your head higher than your heart.

I remember the days you told me we'd never fall apart.

I use to feel guilty, looking back on all the lies I believed.

Your words were filthy; being so far away from you, now I can see.

I was tricked, you lead me straight into your trap!

Even when I kicked, you'd tighten your grip, fastening me to your lap.

You had your way with my head; you knew me too well.

Had me strapped to your bed, had me under your spell.

While the air was running thin in my sealed shut cell,

I found a way under your skin, and out of your hell.

I ran to the beach, to rest my head.

But once I was asleep, I was back in your bed.

I woke up, alone, missing the old you.

Wanting to come home, but knowing thats something I couldn't do.

I counted all the times you ruined my night.

I remembered all the days you wanted to fight.

You were never the one for me.

I shouldn't of promised forever, eight months was enough for me.
