Never
Never
You tell me of days filled with hope
Yet all I am given is despair
Your lips speak of the truth
All I get are lies
I am told of a sparkling future
What I have left is a dark and bitter past
I hear your talk of forever
What I am given is the never
I dream of that future
That future built of gold
Craving that warm embrace
Never again feeling the pain
Instead I get a future built of lead
A frozen smile upon my lips
Constantly struggling through that river of pain
Wishing, always wishing it wasn't true
But the reality is
You're gone
And I am left behind all alone
Left behind with a handful of dreams
Forever left with the bitter taste of that possible forever
Yet all I have received is the never
