Why did you do it?

I saw you just last night

You thought you were so smart

Well, I'm here to set things right

I thought you really cared for me

I guess I was wrong

Why did you have to go hurting me so?

I never would have dreamed of doing such a thing

Don't tell me it was all a mistake

You knew what you were doing

You can't say it was fake

Why do you laugh at it so

Like you never cared

You said you loved me

And then you dared

To turn your back and misuse your words

It must have been so easy for you to say

Well, now I'm turning back on you

For a promise that you breaked

Is it so easy for you to do this

That you would turn away

From the one thing that I believed in

And never would have faked

Did you really think it would go

Exactly as you planned

That you could just leave me

And forever escape the past

It’s not quite that easy

You should have known before

That the minute you turned your back

You’d see me walking through that door

I can’t believe I trusted you

When you told me all those lies

Well, now your secret’s out

Mysterious ways of showing you care

Never understanding your dare

To try to keep me always safe

And trying to keep us both on base

It wasn’t easy to see all those lies

That I had to look close to see inside

And understand the way you tried

To keep me from seeing those lies

I wish I had noticed before

That you were never right for me

But somehow found you easy to believe
