Nobody Taught Us to Quit;

Change;

it's inevitable i guess.

No matter how hard I try, I know

I can't stop you from leaving

So why bother?

Change;

it's only natural I think

Though it's hard for me

seeing our normal routines disappear,

It’s hard for me

watching you slip away,

It’s hard for me

feeling your presence fade

It’s hard for me

to know that soon..

you won't be there

We lie;

We lie

That’s all we ever do, really

Spinning stories so big

Sharp words coated so sweetly

We lie

Make promises we know we can’t keep

For the sake of self-assurance

Telling ourselves we’ve done the right thing

We lie

Because we thought it was the truth

Watch as our trust wavers

Lie because it’s what soothes

We lie

Cut the other’s heart before ours get cut

Ignorance, selfishness and dishonesty

We lie, cos’ face it – it’s an art
