I Was Told a Lie Once
Deception's Melody: Unveiling the Heartbreak in 'I Was Told a Lie Once'
Lyrics
I remember the time that I was laying on your floor
I remember a moment when I was lying on your floor
Waiting for you to come home
Anticipating your return home
But now the city lights are getting darker
Now, the urban lights are dimming
Old habits fail to get to me
My old behaviors are no longer affecting me
So much changed since then
Many things have changed since that time
So where’s your smile?
I'm questioning where your happiness is
Where’s your blinking eye?
Wondering about your expressive eyes
There’s nothing about you in this world
I cannot find anything related to you in this world
That makes me fall apart
Nothing about you causes my emotional breakdown
So please hear me pray to God, silent
Asking silently to God for intervention or guidance
I was told a lie once
I was deceived or misled at some point in the past
I’m hoping and I’m waiting
I'm wishing and patiently waiting
Please fill me with your lies and break it off
Desiring to be filled with deceitful words and then abandoned
I’m hoping and I’m waiting
I'm wishing and patiently waiting
But my gun is near and my aim is getting close
Feeling increasingly prepared to act on my intentions, possibly with violence
There was a time when I’d change the world for you
There was a time I'd do anything for you, but the resentment persists
But that bitter taste remains the same
The bitterness I feel remains unchanged
I’m hoping and I’m waiting
I'm wishing and patiently waiting
Please fill me with your lies and break it off
Desiring to be filled with deceitful words and then abandoned
I’m hoping and I’m waiting
I'm wishing and patiently waiting
But my gun is near and my aim is getting close
Feeling increasingly prepared to act on my intentions, possibly with violence
