Breaking illusions

By ANGELSLAYER

I'm laying to rest all of my dreams
Always end up being deceived
Illusion's demise
It's all crashing down around me

the love slowly fades to pain
A chrysalis of hate
All I thought of our happiness
A brutal mind rape

I saw the future in your eyes
I wish I could have seen through to the lies
I'm tired of waiting and hoping
Hating and hurting

Your angel's wings enfolded me
A halo of torment I mistook for sympathy
Lulled me to a perfect sleep
I never wanted to wake from

You're sucking the life out of me
I wish I could have seen it clearly
The corruption in your heart destroyed me
Left me broken mentally

I thought I was strong
But in the end you shattered me
I lost something of myself
Captured by your sadist's desire

I put all of my faith and trust into you
Something I knew i shouldn't do
But I wanted so bad to believe

I had hoped your love could cure me
But it kills me inside
To see the extent of your apathy
No mercy

If wishes could come true
I'd have my fill of you 
And cast your aside
Wasted and abused

Just as you left me
