I heard two things before the last:
The whistle of a shot
and you anguished and undeniable
screaming No, not-

And then there was just a roar
I waited, but without you
My soul couldn't soar
Up and through

Soon I became unglued
Tugging at nothing
Trying to get to you

So many questions
Bursting from my head
How do you know?
That it's true what's said

Why would you?
Believe them over me
Why won't you?
Open your eyes and see

How could you?
Doubtlessly blame
Me, who loved you
You, who claimed the same

Do I really?
Mean that little to you
That you would say
As if on cue:

How could you**?

All I've ever wanted
And all I've known
Is you

All I could ever desire
And all I could ever need
Is you

All I'll do is wait
And all I'll do is hope
For you

Could I ever find
that you were mine?

Is it:

Just the name of an emotion
Or a force that defies every notion

The defining sense
Or nothing of any consequence

**???

You say you understand
But really you don't
Because you don't know
No, you don't know

Nobody knows
Nobody can know
Because nobody understands

Nobody can understand
*Nobody
Kai McC Apr 2012
Between all the things I've done
and all the things I'll do
How can you believe me when I say
I love you?

How can you know it's true?
When all I've ever done is lie to you
