A Tainted Rose in Flames

And thats when I told you

"expect the best cause I'm everything he's not"

You turned to me

as you looked me in the eyes you said

"thats why I fell for you, I won't ever let you go"

(why I won't let you go)

And as our hearts grew closer

I believed every word you said

Now you've betrayed me for the one

the one I saved you from

Running through the darkness

This Rose in my chest must burn

And this vibrant red turns black

tainted by the lies you live

Thats why I fell for you, and why I've let you go

The back story....well I helped a friend get over this guy she fell pretty hard for. We got into the habit of talking a lot and we eventually fell for each other. We couldn't date though as I was 18 and she was still a minor, so we just kept it at that, still talked all the time...eventually her parents got sick of it and said we couldn't talk or see each other, and I didn't want to piss them off. I let my feelings die off but I didn't forget what we had, and I thought she'd done the same...and today I saw her and the guy I supposedly help her get over kissing and cuddling in public. I wasn't hurt because I still cared for her, I was hurt cause everything she said was a lie. Every single word. let me know how you like it, and gonna make it into a song with a friend, maybe I'll post that later haha
