raindrops fall in shadows
water falls down in gray
where once there had been rainbows
there are only rainy days

you gave your word in silence
i had to bend down near
i thought you had been honest
you said only what i longed to hear

now all dreams are forgotten
and faith is washed away
and all promises are broken
you only shrug and say

"going on won't hurt you
yes, giving up is wrong"
but why should i believe you
when you've been lying all along?

On Being Let Down.
