Alone in this world is how it always seems,
Waiting, longing, wishing to be set free.
Imprisoned in my mind, for all eternity,
Restricted to only feeling hollowness deep inside of me.

Letting you into my life was my first mistake,
Not knowing 'till now its the worst one can make.
You thought my heart was yours to take,
So I put on a brave face, my smile--fake.

I believed that you could take my pain away,
I got lost in every single word that you would say.
I believed I was always safe with you, come-what-may,
And that you would keep my demons at bay.

Its not as easy as it all may seem,
But who said things were what they're supposed to be.
So i convinced you that i was fine, that i was okay,
And then turned around and went about my way.
