Guilty

She's guilty of deceiving me
She said she was in love with me
Worse, still, how long it took to see
How cruel love can be

She twisted my words
Though I gave her love in the face of her lies
She is the devil in a fancy dress
She wears her passion as a thin disguise

And now that we have parted
And gone our separate ways
We can look back on all those wasted days
For there's a lesson inside our story

It haunts my memory
It taught me how hard
The learning can be
