illusions of innocence

[lostinlyingeyes]

stabbed in the back
straight through the heart
can't say i didn't see it coming
just like i always do
but I let myself be blind
i thought more of you
you told me to hope
then you took everything
what i saw as good intentions
were just selfish interventions
to cover your deceit
i trusted you
my heart plays no games
years of friendship down the drain

illusions of innocence
how quickly they fade
goodbye to an old friend
you won't be missed
goodbye to an old friend
ill let words serve as fists
goodbye to an old friend
for covering the truth
goodbye to an old friend
mistake of my youth

please spare me
from your empty words
this isn't anything
to apologize for
how could i forgive
when i can't trust you anymore
not just the situation
but the coverup and lies
if you had integrity
the truth wouldnt be
hidden between the lines

illusions of innocence
how quickly they fade
goodbye to an old friend
you won't be missed
goodbye to an old friend
ill let words serve as fists
goodbye to an old friend
for covering the truth
goodbye to an old friend
mistake of my youth

you knew all of my heart
and that didn't stop you
you had to be a coward
hiding in the shadows
shielding me from the truth
well that isn't a friend
fuck you this is the end

illusions of innocence
how quickly they fade
goodbye to an old friend
you won't be missed
goodbye to an old friend
ill let words serve as fists
goodbye to an old friend
for covering the truth
goodbye to an old friend
mistake of my youth
