you promised to protect me
but you lied to my face
you weren't here when i needed you the most
and now i'm stood here staring into the eyes
of the ghost of who i used to be
you promised your protection
would never come to an end
and well, your affection
you said you'd never fail to send
but you lied to my face
and now there is no longer a single trace
to the girl i used to be
i used to be so pure and innocent
but now i'm as terrified as an infant
about to go on a roller-coaster for the very first time
or standing in front of an audience
daring to admit to a crime
you broke all your promises
you didn't stick to a single one
was me and you, just a little fun?
were you just bored of being single,
and decided to play a game?
and you picked out my name from a hat
and said "well, i wont say no to that!"
Was the game, to play with my heart?
and do your best to make it part
because if it was, well you made an excellent start
and the ending finally came
when i realised, you'd lied to my face
and made me look like a total nutcase
everytime, when you lied to my face.
