With each encounter I know you learn
Of my tricks and games of mind
Making myself appear so kind
The rain has faded from the sky
Leaving me to wonder why
I try to love your heart
Only for mine to be ripped apart
I see now that you and me
Together apart always to be
For you drew your dagger from its sheath
And cut away what lies beneath
