I was blind   Blinded by an innocence that vanished   Along with you   I won't deny   Your actions wounded me   When you were through with me, I couldn't accept the truth      Feel the salt sting in my open hands   The burn reminds me what I can withstand   And I can handle your backhand though   I've just got to know      How did this happen to me?   I wanted to believe every word you said   But I'll just let it be   I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead      So the lesson I've learned, who do we really know?   No one lets the truth be shown, we find out the hard way   You think a person's changed, but people don't change   They're always the same   You never knew, all along   They were that way   Though my disappointment shows I only wanna know      How did this happen to me?   I wanted to believe every word you said   But I'll just let it be   I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead      You may already be dead   I needed you   I needed you there   I needed you   You weren't there      How did this happen to me?   I wanted to believe every word you said   But I'll just let it be   I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead      How did this happen to me? (Needed you)   I wanted to believe every word you said   But I'll just let it be (Needed you)   I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead      You may already be dead   But I have the right to know      [www.letssingit.com]
