Other side

You wore that borrowed halo

Had me hanging every hope on your name

Said I was all you’d ever need

While you were setting up another game

You held my hand so steady

While your other hand erased every line

I called you my one and only

You were too busy living out your lies

You were my future

Thought you were my hero

But you were just the devil living a double life

You lied so easy

Smiled while you broke me

Left me holding all the pieces of your crimes

Trust turned to rust

All this love turned doubtful in my mind

You were my future

Till I saw your other side

How many careful stories

Did you practice just to cover your tracks

How many beds

How many mornings

Did you wake up and forget what you had

You twisted every question

Made me feel like I was losing my mind

Gas in my veins

Lighted the match

Then you walked away

Left it all red

You were my future

Thought you were my hero

But you were just the devil living a double life

You lied so easy

Smiled while you broke me

Left me holding all the pieces of your crimes

Trust turned to dust

All this love turned poison over time

You were my future

Till I saw your other side

Now every word you said

Feels like something I should scrub from my skin

You called it love

Called it forever

I call it a sickness I won’t fall in again (no more)

You were my future

Thought you were my hero

But you were just the devil living a double life

You lied so easy

Smiled while you broke me

Left me holding all the pieces of your crimes

Trust turned to rust

But I’m burning every piece of your lies

You were my future

Now you’re just a man I need to leave behind
