Thank-you for the Betrayal

im shaking
not now, not here, not like this
i always thought i could hold my breath for longer
i thought i could wish upon the stars one more time
and hold you close, just one more time

i didn't get to say goodbye, but you packed up and left
you didn't even leave a letter
not even a cliche is sight
just a lie
and then came the truth
in the form of a photograph
plastered for all to see
you were so careless
you didn't mean for me to see it
but i didn't trust you anyway

and so a new leaf has been given life
a new day breaks
for this time i look to the skies
and know in my heart
it was better that you left

because i didn't trust you
nor you to me

and now the lies have stopped

thank you for betraying me
