Torn From the Pages of My Heart

You Irresistible Liar

It's hard to see where I began
and where I went wrong
At the height my feelings ran
I found you creeping into my song

Your familiar faces differ each time
Like unlikely places you catch me with
Long-winded phrases fly up in rhymes
You're smug; you always win

You grab me like I was air
I'd hold onto you, no one's there
You've had enough, I'd barely notice
Nothing began for you, nothing was over

How many times you play this game
Oh, won't you ever tire?
You'd come to me like nothing's changed
Like a fool, I'd get on fire!
