When I've fallen in love before
I've always been the only one left
At the end of it all
Alone with my broken heart
Wonderin' how they moved on so fast
Did they lie from the start?
I thought it would be different with you
All the promises you made would be true
Then you dropped me like a cigarette
Ashes burnin' at the end
Stompin' out the fire that was me and you
Oh my naïveté's so rich
Hurt so many times
I still haven't learned life's a bitch
I blindly open myself to love
Thinkin' that this time would be special
That you were the one
I thought it would be different with you
All the promises you made would be true
Then you dropped me like a cigarette
Ashes burnin' at the end
Stompin' out the fire that was me and you
Oh you're such the pretender
Your speech so well tempered
You hide away your passion
For a life that's more in fashion
I know you felt somethin'
But you were always searchin'
For a way to stop emotion
Your affection remains frozen
So you drop me like a cigarette
Ashes burnin' at the end
Stompin' out the fire of us
Never lookin' back again
Hopin' maybe I'd forget
The poetry of all you said to me
All you said to me
Was true
