A Love Collaboration

If you were in real estate, you'd have me sold
How many times have I told you this is getting old?
If it weren't for your past relationship you would trust me
That's the truth you claim and I trust it must be

We sold each other dreams and a life novelists could write about
But the storm clouds on the horizon made us question what we really cared about
I love you and you love me but the word LOVE is over played and under funded
Cuz when we said we were everything we ever wanted...well I guess we weren't keeping it 100
 
Plus I always thought that the 2 of us equaled 1
But the negative was relentless and wouldn't let us overcome
Unfortunately our problems weren't ever algebraic
They were real and compounded like and archaic cut mosaic

We thought we could build a life together but we didn't have a blueprint
Yes this is the Wild West but we didn't have true grit
We've both heard rumors girl but that's why they're called "rumors"-they're not true
And I don't expect you to believe them about me so why did I believe them about you?
I guess my closest friends were our biggest downfall
Cuz when push came to shove...
love wasn't enough

Now I'm left with my heart half broken and my mind fully aware
That if those words were never spoken, then life would still feel fair
I don't have you which means I have nothing
No more us, no more trust, no more diamond ring
My heart was never on my sleeve, I just gave it to you
To hold, to shape, to do to it whatever you wanted to
And you crushed it's life and dimmed it's beats
So it aches for you in a dying defeat

Love,

& MARTIN LEWIS
