Array ( [sid] => 49955 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => i thought, i thought (wrong it seems) [time] => 2004-06-01 10:01:37 [hometext] => this is basically about trusting someone and finding out they were just trying to break through to the wall i built around me ...and they did it with betraying my trust in them...admitting it to myself and moving on..and i did just that [bodytext] => I thought that you loved me, i thought you cared
aren't those the feelings, in your heart that you bared
i thought there was an understanding, between you and i
that between the two of us there would be no lies
i thought that you wanted me, as much as i wanted you
and with one day at a time, we could make it through
i thought that something was happening, between you and me
or was this just a game to see if you could get me
to play with my mind and invade my heart
i wonder was this the plan from the start
to see if you could break through the wall of pain
and listen as i bared all my shame
i thought i could trust you so i let you in
i believed that we were the best of friends
and now its not hard to see, that you were just gaming me
now that the blinders are off for me to see
but that's my fault, i can only blame my desire for you as friend
but that's a mistake i wont make again
i wont be so open or trustin, with my thoughts or heart
for now there is nothing left to tear apart
a painful lesson learned, from being burned this way
i shall write about it and put it away
i thought giving people a chance, is what you were supposed to do
i guess i didn't think smart enough when it came to you
like the dawn of a new day i shall go on
and view this as a lesson that will make me strong
like spring turns to summer, where things are warm, pretty, and new
it is in those times that i shall forgive and forget about you
but i want to thank you, for not letting me forget
how even your most trusted friend can treat you like *****
i will make new friends and they will have their place
but it will be done at a wiser and slower pace
