Our whole relationship was copied & pasted,
Nothing was new.
Instead it was familiar.
Every line you used on me, every word spoken, every thought you shared,
every story you told ... was already in the hands of another.

The sick part was ... i didn't leave.
Instead i stayed and turned the other cheek.
Why?
Because in my eyes i had something she didn't.
Whatever it was, i ran with it.
Despite not knowing the reason,
i didn't ask because i didn't want to know
once the truth was out in the open
i knew what we had would fall apart, and i tried to prevent that.

I ignored every lie
and looked over the traces that lead me back to her.
but it didn't matter
what we had would always be a duplicate,
never an original
nothing was unique, nothing was mine
i was living another person's love story,
i was living HER love story.

the same situation, just a different face eh?
i was the different face, it was her movie
she directed it and you wrote the script
i just happened to land the starring role.
the role of the fool who believed a thing called "us".
