Shot in the chest
You told me you loved me
 You said I was the only one for you
 You said there will never be another and I took your word as the truth
 I gave you everything I’d known
 I gave you all of myself
 But in the end all I got was a shot in the chest
 
 You did it without any heart
 Your eyes had no emotions intact
 You held the gun to my chest
  And at that moment I knew 
 What we had was just part of the act
 You pulled the trigger and blew out my heart
 It was so unexpected
 But being with you was a lie from the start
 
 The bullet sinks deeper every time I see you with her
 You never look me in the eyes, the fear
 You might see how much it hurts.
 You were sneaky and conniving
 You took everything I had from me, that is why I’m writing.
 
 I try to forget you and the good act you put on
 But the pain and the memory is still lodged in my chest
 And will always be there from now on 
 It’s going to take some time for this wound to mend
 But in my hard times this pain is my friend.
