l i v i n g a l i e

i've been living a lie

i've been kidding myself

telling myself that i don't know what love feels like

that i would feel the butterflies again soon

we're just going through a rough patch

but then my heart never fluttered again

and i didn't think of you in the same light

but now you'll be living in a lie

that i'm still feeling the butterflies

and the fluttering of my heart

but to me, you're no longer here

just a figment of my past

and i'm sorry

but i don't love you anymore
