That used to be me

I used to make you smile

And I got over you for awhile

But now you haunting me

Seeing you with her

Brings tears to my eyes

I thought I was sure

I was done with these cries

 

How many times must I lie to myself?

When will the truth set me free?

I’m the dusty book on your shelf

Wish you’d come and reread me

 

Our story begins on a sunny afternoon

And a pen with a note inside

You caught me by surprise

 I didn’t have a clue

I didn’t realize

I was entering a world I never knew

The world of me and you

 

Then it wasn’t just me and it wasn’t just you

We were together and I was confused

So many new things that I never knew

Then fear of mistakes left me feeling accused

Then on a cold august night

My cell phone rang

Something didn’t fell right

And I was never the same

I made my mistakes

But you screwed up worse

17 days and you back in the works

You and my best friend

Were you trying to hurt me

I know that you were

You still have the key

To my heart my love won’t die

When you ask me how I am im forced to lie

 

How many times must I lie to myself?

When will the truth set me free?

I’m the dusty book on your shelf

Wish you’d come and reread me

 

We have a story

We have a past

I held it in glory

But that faded fast

My smile is gone

and my pages are tattered

my heart broke at dawn

and the pieces are scattered

 

How many times must I lie to myself?

When will the truth set me free?

I’m the dusty book on your shelf

Wish you’d come and reread me

Then it wasn’t just me and it wasn’t just you

We were together and I was confused

So many new things that I never knew

Then fear of mistakes left me feeling accused

I’m the dusty book on your shelf

Wish you’d come and reread me

Come and Reread me
