I told you I loved you
I said I cared about
That was the truth I told
You told me you loved me
You said that cared about
That wanted me for me
But oblivious to the truth
Caught in the lies of a beautiful dream
The truth I found was more hurtful then death
Using me
One lie after another
Never the truth
Finally I can see
Past the dream
Back to earth
Home at last

I dated this girl and i really thought she care about me. But I found out she didn't and when I finally opened my eyes I found the truth behind every word.
