Bane

Her Lucky Pretty Eyes

Bane


How did I not know that your words meant less than dust 
And were born of an idea that you had heard but having 
Nothing in common with truth or with trust 
Everything that you swore so quickly snatched away 
And me left without a heart and nothing to hold onto 
But still so much to feel 
While my house burned down you didn't bring water but gasoline 
And all I ever hated rose right up and bled through you 
Now I can only regret every moment that we spent 
Every second we shared only makes matters worse 
For I have seen the truth behind the sparkle in your eyes 
I finally see the ugly behind your pretty disguise 
Now I can't stop wishing that you had never looked my way 
And you have the nerve to ask me why 
Why the fuck did you tell me about magic and then 
Show me the strings 
Why did you whisper that your heart was in my teeth 
When that was the first place that you kicked me as 
I lay helpless on the ground 
Yes all that once was has turned to the blackest of hate 
Instead of wishing you the best 
I will be rooting for you to fall 
As I learn the most painful lesson of all 
That a lie is a lie is a lie is a lie 
I don't give a fuck how pretty it's disguise
