Lyric of Betrayal



I saw you there,

Standing next to him,

Eyes forward and hands entwined.

A peaceful look,

One that's easy to define.


I'd heard the rumors,

Seen you with him,

But I was blind to what was going on,

No intuition.


I was walking along in the mornings vague,

Mulling through the fog,

Wandering the crowded sleeping halls.

Looking in as the passerby,

Saw you and him together,

And it finally clicked just why.


But its all gone now,

I'm walking still,

But the world has gone away.


Saw you and him together,

And I could no longer seem to hear,

The things anyone had to say.


No fury inside anymore,

No presence of mind anymore,

No love for you anymore.


Now I know its true,

You think that he truly loves you,

Hopefully he believes that too.


So I hope it lasts,

Won't become another fragment of your past.

Doesn't lend itself to deceit,

Doesn't leave you feeling incomplete.


I hope it lasts,

So I don't have to see you shattered,

Another unsung lyric,

In the melody of betrayal.
