lyrics

I trusted you, I thought you knew that everything was cool between us
Then I turned around to find you dancing on my grave
I thought I knew you

I trusted you, I thought you knew that everything I do reflects
The generosity and pain that died inside of you
But I was a fool
That's not you

I trusted you, and then you threw everything away that kept the dreams alive
Inside of me
And then you burned away my soul

I trusted you, I felt that you believed that everything I did
Was just a way of keeping you from living your own life
But that's not you

I trusted you, before I knew that everything I do was just a prison wall
Or an empty gesture, wasted in your eyes
Before I knew you

I trusted you, but now I know everything I do should be a gift for me
And not for you
Because that's the way it goes
