Wasted lullaby

You make me want to take back time
You twisted your tongue to get what you wanted
You've convinced yourself you're nothing like "that guy"
But let me tell you, you're right
You're worse than "that guy"

I had a feeling you were too good to be true
Had my head stuck in the clouds, in the blue
Why didn't I want to believe myself when
You spoke more words than Webster
You're nothing more than a Hallmark card

The memories with you are now tattered and tangled in my mind
I was a blind fool and you a crystal-clear tool
I believed in you
Maybe that's where I went wrong
I actually have faith in others

I can't turn back the clock
I must admit, I am in shock
I wanted to believe you weren't your own worst enemy
But let me tell you and believe me when I say,
Grow up, wake up and be real for once in your life


You're nothing but a wasted lullaby
Tears form but they don't fall
You hear your name but there was no call
I wasn't afraid, I wasn't shy
You're nothing but a twisted lie

I'm done with your pretentiousness
Your conniving charm
You hid behind a web of hand-crafted lines
Swallow the spider & keep the web
This is my goodbye.
