People always tell me to smile
Without asking context, saying why
With you the smiles seemed to come easy
Like all in the world was fine, but to find out it was false to find out you weren't that kind is what tore my heart to shreds
Every brick of that house we built together
All our fingers intertwined. That love was unraveled faster than you can say pine. For it is true once I loved you, when I thought you were mine but you showed me that wasn't true. No one can love a heart such as mine.
The smiles of course grew less and less. The sun deciding not to shine. When that post it note was my feelings and you ripped it to shreds. Told me it was never to happen. That it couldn't work out because I was to tempting for your hormones to resist.
Brick by brick the house came down. The future plans for a wedding, three kids, a new town. Teardrop by teardrop my feelings fell creating an ocean that I would one day be drowned in.
But what I have come to learn is that people can't be trusted. You give them all you've got they take it and run. And when there's nothing left of you but ashes. They take those ashes and turn them into an hourglass counting down to the next time they may use you
What's most interesting is what you said. That day we were together and I couldn't get you out of my head. "I was smiling a lot that day" I took that as a sign but now smiles mean nothing they're just hiding what's inside
Maybe in the future I'll smile again
Maybe there will be someday where I don't wish I was better off dead. But the truth is I loved you with all that I had and the truth is that wasn't good enough for you to stay here.
