“Truth in Your Eyes”

You used to call me late at night

Say my name like it felt right

Painted dreams in shades of gold

But every promise turned so cold

I ignored the little signs

The missing calls, the changing eyes

I kept fighting for “us” alone

While you were gone before you’d gone

⸻

Now the pieces finally fit

And it hurts more than I admit

You held me close while breaking trust

Turned our love into dust

⸻

I saw the truth in your eyes tonight

No more shadows, no more lies

You said forever, but you crossed the line

While I was giving you all of mine

Now the tears don’t hide the pain

They wash your memory away

You lost the girl who loved too deep

Now you can lie to someone else in your sleep

⸻

Your phone lit up at 2 a.m.

You said, “Baby, it’s just a friend”

But your silence said enough

And I got tired of fake love

I wore my heart out on my sleeve

While you gave yours so easily

To strangers I will never know

Funny how betrayal always shows

⸻

And now the mirror shows me clear

I was loyal, you disappeared

You broke the trust we used to build

Now all I feel is standing still

⸻

I saw the truth in your eyes tonight

No more shadows, no more lies

You said forever, but you crossed the line

While I was giving you all of mine

Now the tears don’t hide the pain

They wash your memory away

You lost the girl who loved too deep

Now you can lie to someone else in your sleep

⸻

I hope she sees what I ignored

The empty words, the slammed doors

’Cause one day karma comes around

And truth is louder than the sound

Of your excuses, your disguise

I finally see through your alibis

And though it hurts, I’m walking free

You lost the best thing you could keep

⸻

I saw the truth in your eyes tonight

And somehow I survived goodbye

You broke my heart, but not my soul

Now I’m learning to let go

No more waiting by the phone

No more crying all alone

You lost the girl who stayed through pain

And you’ll never find that love again

⸻

You lied so well…

But not well enough.
