Burning your old photos one by one.
The fire is still lingering until we are done.
Smoke is fading in the skies,
Like our unforgiving lies.
What shall we do..
With a lie built into the truth.
How do we believe what has been said.
When truth lies somewhere inside your head.
The mission we thought was ours to break.
Was theirs to take..
But we never realized what a lie can do.
Especially if it covers over the truth.
How do we hang our promises to dry.
When you left me standing there, ready to cry.
We stood up to the beast inside us.
Ready to fight for love.
But our hearts deceived us.
So now we are standing up against what was never enough.
And that's what was in front of us all along.....a word called love.
