Too Blind To See

Miles of confusion
Only a few steps away
caught up in the delusion
of the mind games we play

you say you really love me
and that we shall never part
but I am, oh, too blind to see
that you'll just break my heart

you say you really hate me
and your anger just grows and ascends
but I, again, am too blind to see
that your love has met its end

you came to me and said you were wrong
you do still love me with all your heart
i was at your mercy but tried to be strong
i couldn't help but give it a new start

we got along, just for a while
but your words because bitter and chilling
i seemed to lose that gleaming smile
to fight for our love, you were not willing

"truth hurts" i once heard you say
blaming the misery all on me
i could never stop loving you, not even a day
but now you're the one who's too blind to see

i stood by you no matter what
but in time you pushed me away
your words were sharper than a knifes cut
the pain swells with each passing day

you were too blind to see the confusion inside
in your heart and in your soul
keeping your true feelings to hide
your heart lost all its control

days passed by, but it felt like years
there was nothing i could do or say
pillow cases flooded and stained with tears
missing and losing you each and every day
