You trapped me

You whispered sweet things into my ears while I slowly fell for them

You promised you would never change and that you would love me

We spoke for hours on the phone and you enjoyed my company…

One day you woke up different

One day you forgot the promises

One day you simply forgot to be sweet…

That was never you

You lied to me hoping I would fall for you

And for what? What was the point if you weren’t going to love me back?

I gave you a taste of your own medicine

I stopped being sweet and I stopped caring

Now you are questioning why I changed

Now you are wondering who I am

I freed myself from your hypnotic manipulation

I freed myself from your lies

I didn’t fall for you for who you really are

I fell for your charm, which is a lie
