Deception of The Heart
I thought she had a heart
But really nothing inside but granite and stone
I beat my self up many nights caught up in nocturnal cries
She made me believe she was better than rest
But instead she was the best at deception
She lied to me but even worse she lied to self
She use to amuse but now she just leaves me confuse
I thought I crush you but time revealed
My heart is the one turned to dust
You ain't no berry you'r just spoiled fruit
You left me and made me crazy
Time revealed that your heart is shady
Myself I often blamed until I became emotionally lame
Because of time and absence I bare witness
To the betrayal of my heart.
