Swoon

Swoon

A Poem by JKHughes
"

Lyrics for a song of the same name. Don't really need to explain the meaning.

"
The love that keeps us, and kills us
I've grown disillusioned and disturbed through all the lies,
That you've tried to hide,
While I've been tossing and turning throughout a restless night
You know I can't stand it anymore how you just keep on trying to fight,
Well I'm leaving, I'm leaving you far behind.
When I can't trust a single word that's ever fallen from your lips,
you're not facing a sociopath, you're facing the truth,
is that so hard to grasp?
Your clothes still piled next to my bed, I thought I'd miss you,
But your face is fading now.
And a shadow lingers on in my head.

The words that I've grown to loathe,
Your voice makes my heart grow so cold.
But still, you make me swoon.

Was I too self assured that I was blinded by you,
And the promises that you made
I played the fool,
but there was a voice in the background every time I'd call.
When I can't trust a single word that's ever fallen from your lips,
you're not facing a sociopath, you're facing the truth,
is that so hard to grasp?
Your clothes still piled next to my bed, I thought I'd miss you,
But your taste is fading now.
But a shadow lingers on in my head.

The words that I've grown to loathe,
Your voice makes my heart grow so cold.
But still, you make me swoon.

You're in my head. But still you make me swoon
