Vindictive

When I first met you, I was convinced
That love is good, despite the pretence
disguised as all is good and well.
I suppose that very few could tell.

Somewhere through the progression
my affection turned to aggression.
The memory of your face, once euphoric
turned into just a simple face - toxic.

It's been five months since I last saw you. And the wounds are no longer raw.
I've grown stronger from the pain
a tough lesson, but not in vain.

Others will say 'forgive and forget'
but I can't control this feeling I get.
When I think of this cavern in my chest
I remember the nights when I got no rest
the nights I called your name in agony
the nights I wondered "why isnt it me"
the nights I felt completely empty.
Those are the nights I can't forget.

You're out there, somewhere,
I just dont know where.
I know you're happy, well I hope trying
I'd say I want that - but I'd be lying.

The truth is, I want revenge
I want to see you on the edge
Almost off but not quite yet.
Stay there and I might forget.
Cry out in pain, wail in agony
Clutch your chest, feel its empty.
If I believe that it's true
I might even forgive you.
