Like We Never Met

Drifting through a sea of lies

Hearing all the echoed cries

My guilt in it I cannot deny

The illusions of those who deny,

What’s left of life you cannot buy

They’re out to get Mister Nice Guy

You get out of bed only to hear her sigh

When you first met her you were shy,

The reflections that come and go

The struggles of life part of the show

You have to get up blow after blow

The toxic seeds we all sow,

That once good old faithful feeling

Now needs critical healing

Now you’re begging God as you’re kneeling

Out of body experience you’re on the ceiling,

Playing the false identity game

The rules have changed it’s no longer the same

The war of love stake your claim

You were vulnerable and thought she was tame,

My little doll from the China Sea

Did it feel good to betray me?

Always so restless and unhappy

You could never just be free,

To think of my trust now only jokingly

Life and love don’t seem my cup of tea

Cruelty and treachery just leave me be

Just lay me to rest lovingly,

The starship will launch just as planned

Enchanting the audience like a tight, cohesive, band

Mesmerizing the adoring fans

Unlike caving in to terrorist demands,

You will go on like we never met

What you stole from me will be your safety net

Can’t help but have my regrets

Perhaps I haven’t learned from my lesson yet.
