It hurts like hell
When someone you trusted
Someone you trusted well
Betrays you instead

Burns hot like fire
Deep within your soul
When she becomes a liar
And plays a wicked role

A role where the hurt
You caused goes real far
A role you thought
Would never be her

Someone you thought would be there for you
Through the high, thought the low Through the grey, through the blue
Through the sun, through the snow

Turns her back and goes
Like you meant nothing at all
Hits you with several blows
And stays to watch you fall

When everyone close
Are not who you thought they were
When their true self shows
And the truth becomes clear

It's clearer now than ever
That someone you prayed
Prayed that would never
Ever leave you betrayed

It was like an arrow
Shot really precisely
I saw it coming though
Didn't know it was for me

It caught me off guard
Knocked me off my feet
I fell really hard
I think I broke my teeth

She did something
I thought she never would
Why she did that thing
I never understood

And when she left
She left me a scar
So I'll never forget
Each time I see her

Now I know why they say
Once beaten, twice shy
I realised that this day
Yes, I now know why

Now know why they say
They're not who you think they are
I now know that, hey
I learnt it all from her

Now I know why they say
I have to know the ones to trust
I learnt the hard way—
To trust, if at all I must

Betrayal freezes your heart
So you'll never feel again
Yet it has its good part
You'll no longer feel pain

It thought me to be wise
Me no stupid any longer
It opened up my eyes
And it made me stronger
