You Say

You Say

You say it as if you want me

When we all know that you don't

You treat me like a trophy

Gold that glistens in the dark

You say it as if you need me

But we all know that you can't

You still think I'm your torch

Stood here burnt right out

You say it as if you'll love me

When we both know that you won't

You're trying to fill the chasm

Full of years null and void

You say it as if I'll stay here

But we both know that I shan't

You kicked open the flood gates

Your little bird flew right out
