Forever and always

lost inside a memory, of when every word was true.
when i gave everything that i had, to a love that never grew.
but right there beside you, was where i wanted to be.
but i got lost in your eyes, and i guess i didnt see.

i was just an object, an asset to your game.
but i pretended not to notice, so i covered up the pain.
i played along for ages, each day you broke my heart.
but you said forever and always, and that we'd never be apart.

it killed me when you said it, cause i knew it was a lie.
but i didnt want to admit it, you said our love would never die.
and now your on your knees, and your screaming out my name.
here's a taste of your own medicine, you lost at your own game.

and now that i'm alone, myself.. i cannot find.
surrounded by your memory, that sank its teeth into my mind.
i can feel my heart dissolviong, burning eyes finally see.
so give me your hands and i'll let you feel, the wounds deep within me.
 forever is a long time, but i've heard it all before.
my insides have turned to ash, i dont feel alive anymore.
i used to be happy, and i used to be fun.
but your poison runs throught my veins, now look at what i've become.

You sucked the life out of me,  and left me there to die.
and your saying sorry and asking for forgiveness, but its just another lie. So dont go blamming me, for all of your  mistakes.
you brought everything upon yourself, the truth you cannot take.
and i'll try fix these wounds, but please give me some time.
i will find myself again, and mend this heart of mine.
