A Loud Lie

A Loud Lie

You sat on my heart and I sat by your soul
Looking past our dreams and thinking beyond our goal
I crept into your head and you swept into my space
We stood there together wanting to go to another place

Where were we?
When were we there?
Did you stop to notice?
Did I think to care?

You came onto me and I let go of you.
I released you too quick and you let go of me too.
Where were you when I stood all alone?
When did I last see you at home?

Why were we together?
What pulled us apart?
Did I stop to feel it
while you stood on my heart?

Now I stand here cold and there's no hope in my head.
You'll never know that I didn't mean what I said.
Not that it matters, not that you'd care-
When I said I wasn't alone I wasn't even there.

(pure cheese- sorry)

why am i always attracted to the lines of utter pain?

i really like this line, theres nothing wrong with cheese- it means it comes from the heart.Would Bono be the mean we love, if he worried about looking cheesy?

"You came onto me and I let go of you."

I love that line. I know that line. I've lived it. Great job!
