i’m not a liar
don’t make it sound like i am
my love is true but inattentive
’cause yes, there is someone else
yes, i found someone new
you’re the one who walked away
you’re the one who said that you couldn’t stay
and bear to see my broken self
so, i didn’t ask
i didn’t beg and scream and shout
your weakness wasn’t my strength
what difference would it make
you left
