A landfill of lies

Please copy and paste and listen while reading and as always thanks for looking https://youtube.com/watch?v=O9_-VpIVGnc  
   
Apparently the interview between us          
4 years ago was all a sham riddled with lies.        
         
My choices, they do define who I have become        
who I will become...          
         
I wanna be a good person          
make good decisions       
an enjoy love unconditionally        
         
The white picket fence is broken          
and the damage Is everywhere          
soaked into every fiber          
of what made us,          
Us ...        
         
I think we both know it’s over          
even though neither of us          
will admit it        
         
What use to work          
Just doesn’t work anymore          
If it ever did        
     
There isn’t enough space or time left        
in my lifetime, to push aside all the        
garbage you dumped onto me          
and start new.          
At least not with you.      
     
The man who swept me off my feet          
The man I fell deeply in love with          
never really existed    
He isn’t real.        
     
The struggle is real          
My love was real          
The fallout is real too
