Lost - Heather Peace

I don’t trust you, even though you’re wispering in my ear

Each word you speak clangs hollow

And your promises I can no longer hear

You don’t trust you, every time you speak

You mean each word

But you’re fickle and change with the wind

Shedding tears for yourself when you turn

How do you sleep with yourself at night

Oh you’re holding someone else until it’s light

Is that to stop your dry eyes reminding you you didn’t care?

The next time you make love I won’t be there

I’m standing at the door with the things I came with

Wishing you a happy life I kiss your cheek

The security you crave for, I’m afraid it’s not worth the wait for me

How do you sleep with yourself at night

Oh you’re holding someone else until it’s light

Is that to stop your dry eyes reminding you you didn’t care?

The next time you make love I won’t be there

I’ve cried till I cannot breathe

While you sat silently flicking through some magazine

You don’t know yourself, you’re kind and gentle but so lost

The next time you make love I won’t be there, that’s the cost
