Another day, another heartbreak
I had hit rock bottom, the bottom of the barrel
I had sipped from the bottle, until the bottle wasn't helping
Started slowly drifting- hollow, like the hollow in my bed set
Of where you used to lie- and lying was what you were best at
Crocodile tears when I caught you in a sex act
With someone who wasn't me, in the spot I rest my head at
Dreams turned to nightmares of where we'd get wed at
When I think back on the things you'd said, the lies you spewed
How did you sleep at night, laying next to the man you lied to?
The consistency of your inconsistencies -
is constantly driving a drift between who I was and who I wished to be
Now that I know, ill is what you're wishing me?
You said he was your best friend
I'm ok now but I was depressed when
You kissed him, thinking I wasn't listening
Don't play the victim, this heartache is crippling
The tightness in my chest
The shallow in my breath
I did my best to give you the best
When you left, you left faithlessness
I guess you put the "L-I-E" in faithfulness
I was in my feelings, filling prescriptions
A side effect of life is feeling indifference
Dead or alive, I couldn't feel a difference
Even next to each other you kept your distance
That's not the worst, stay right there
I can still see you in my nightmare
Why am I saying all this? It's not like you might care
Used to hope when I awoke you'd be right there
I always was a dark horse, like a night mare
Had to fight for you just for you to not care
About the pain and stress in my hair
I've healed now, I don't care if he was your best friend
When he cheats on you, I hope you're depressed when
He kisses them, thinking you weren't listening
You'll actually be a victim of heartache that's crippling
When you grip your chest
Lose the heat in your breath
When you know you had the best
Had nothing more than everything and deserved less
I hope that pain is one you never forget
You chose a player over a devotee, you chose the faithlessness
I guess you are the "F-A-U-L-T" in faithfulness.
