You told me you would make it right
But that's not the way that it played out
I waited for your reply
To tell me the truth about how you made out
Then suddenly you were not very clear
And all the while you insisted on being sincere
These are just words to you
And nothing more
I'd go to the ends of the earth with you
And you told me you felt the same
And I believed in what you said
Well how could I know it was a game
You could sound really heartfelt and true
And for a moment I believed in you
Do you even know what you're saying
Is it just a caterwaul
Is it all sound and fury signifying nothing at all
You say that you value our friendship
But your talk talk talk is cheap
It's easy to say "I love you"
When you can't go down down down that deep
It doesn't matter what you intend, no
When you live in a world of pretend
