Mistaken (Trillium)

Foolish was I to have believed you Insufferable acts did I endure I never betrayed, never deceived you Was always behaved, ever demure So long to all the poetry of emotion It’s crumpled up and strewn upon the floor So long to all the sunflowers in my garden For they’ll not taste the raindrops anymore Betrayed by your whispered lullabies and empty cries The lake damming up all my solemn pride has left me dry Forsake all of the thousand counterfeit sighs You fake it You make it that I was mistaken Sanctity fled beyond retrieval The church of my heart was not enough I cannot believe you’d be so evil Devotion besieged and left to rust So long to all the harmony of emotion She left before we could settle up the score So long to all the violets in my garden For they’ll not see the sunlight anymore Betrayed by your whispered lullabies and empty cries The lake damming up all my solemn pride has left me dry Forsake all of the thousand counterfeit sighs You fake it You make it that I was mistaken Too many signs ignored Beneath the rose are always thorns And Sleeping Beauty never will awaken Now wasted time and fairytales are all I see within your name And every way I ever was mistaken
