Scarlet Desire : Darkest Betrayal

 

She has me every day,
Every breath, every thought. 
Her voice on the phone is a chain,
Pulling me off the road, 
Dragging me from the world I built, 
Because she is too beautiful to resist.
We met at the wrong time, the right soul. 
A glance, a touch, and I was undone. 
I left on a flight, but my heart 
Stayed behind, smoldering in her hands.
She is fire, burning down every plan,
Every empire I dreamed of. 
I wanted the world,
But now I want only her.
Do your worst to me, I told her
But she is the worst and the best, 
The ruin and the salvation. 
I never fall in love, but she feels 
Too good, too close, too necessary.
She breaks my rules, rewrites my truth.
 She arrives late, but her beauty 
Makes time to bow down. 
She bends destiny, and I follow willingly, 
Because I have never met a girl 
Who could unmake me so completely
I wish I could let go, 
But she is too beautiful. 
I wish I could silence the hunger,
But she is too beautiful.
I wish I could leave her behind, 
But she is too beautiful.
And so I burn, obsessed, undone, 
Every day, every night,
Bound to her touch, 
Her fire, her impossible beauty.

You keep telling me I am free to go, 
But freedom is a lie. I am chained to you, 
My veins filled with your shadow, 
My breath is addicted to your name.
You say you walk alone 
But I see through the mask. 
Without me, you are hollow, 
A ghost wandering the corridors of silence. 
Don’t you lie, don’t you lie.
You should know I will not let you go. 
A thousand times, A million times, 
I have sung this lullaby of chains. 
I thought I was enough,
But it seems that enough is never enough.
I will not say goodbye. I will not release.
Every minute we spent together 
Burns inside me like fire. 
You pretend it meant nothing,
But I see the truth
Your lies are stitched with fear.
Each time you reach for the door, 
I do not blame you.
But I will follow. I will follow.
You should know I will not let go. 
Your leaving is a wound,
But wounds do not heal
They fester, they bind,
They call me back to you.
I thought love was enough, 
But love has turned to hunger.
I will not say goodbye. 
I will not forgive. I will not forget.
Hard for me, Hard for me,
But harder for you. 
You cannot escape the gravity of me. 
It is hard, it is hard,
It is hard to leave when I am the shadow
That waits at every door.

You were my sun, my earth, 
The center of everything I breathed.
I gave you my body, my soul, 
My heart lay bare in your hands. 
But every word you spoke was a mask, 
A lie dressed as love, a deception
To shield someone else. I trusted you. 
I believed in the fire between us. 
I thought I was enough,
But you chose shadows, 
You chose silence, you chose them over me.
I found out the truth, not from your lips, 
But from another’s whisper. 
And in that moment, everything
We built collapsed into ash.
You told me you loved me,
Yet left me alone. You called me,
But your voice was hollow, 
A ghost of promises already burned.
I regret every surrender, 
Every night I gave myself to you, 
Every time I let you touch 
The deepest parts of me. 
You carried my devotion like a weapon, 
And now I bleed from the betrayal.
The damage is done. There is no return. 
You lied to protect them, but destroyed me. 
And now, I am left with nothing but regret
For loving you, For trusting you, 
For giving you all of me.
Cry me a river, for I have drowned
In one already.

Don’t lie to me, your silence 
It is a flame I cannot escape. 
Oh, I’ve been thinking of you, 
Dreaming of the curve of your body, 
The taste of your breath, 
The secrets I ache to teach you.
Headlights in the dark, 
Hold tight, don’t let go
Every thought of you is a fever
That consumes me.
You know the deal
No promises, no restraint. 
Only the fire between us, 
Only the burn of skin against skin.
You’ve got me flying high, 
Right where you want me,
Watch me surrender, watch me burn.
Dim the light, make the night our lullaby.
Touch me now, stop pretending. 
Let the hunger speak, 
Let the craving devour.
Say what you want,
I could lose my mind for you. 
Every thought is a storm, 
Every dream is a confession.
What do you want me to be? 
I will be the shadow, the flame, 
The body pressed against yours. 
I have been dreaming of you, 
Burning for you, aching for your touch.
You know the deal, no promises, 
No escape. Only desire, 
Only the fire that binds us.
Got me flying high, 
Right where you want me. 
Watch me burn, watch me surrender.
Dim the light, make me yours. 
Touch me now, stop pretending.
Watch me burn for you.

There was a time I carried you inside me
Love and hate tangled, but you were mine.
You were the reason my eyes could smile, 
The pulse beneath my skin, 
The fire that lit my nights.
Now fear eats me alive. 
If you had believed the truth in my eyes,
We would have stolen another day. 
If you had seen me, really seen me, 
We would have carved
Eternity from the hours.
But you lied. Every word a blade, 
Every silence is a wound. 
I felt myself falling, 
Straight down into the 
Pit of your betrayal. 
This hell claws at my lungs.
I cannot breathe,
Yet I cannot let you fall away. 
Better to lose my head 
Than lose you to another.
Why is someone else inside your thoughts? 
Why do I hear his shadow in your voice?
It drives me mad, a storm 
Tearing through my brain, 
Obsession gnawing at the edges of reason.
You were mine. 
You should have been mine. 
And still I burn, still I crave,
Still, I rage against the truth 
That you are with him.
If you had believed in me, 
We would have had another day.
Another night. Another lifetime.
But now I am left with fury, 
With hunger, with the agony 
Of knowing you are 
Too close to someone else.
And I swear this torment 
Will not fade. I will carry it, 
Bleeding, burning, 
Until the world itself is forced
To see that you were mine.

Whether it is glass or a heart, 
In the end, it breaks. Fragile, trembling,
It shatters in silence, and
I am left holding only the pieces of us.
By the time love reaches the lips,
The cup slips from the hands. 
Promises spill, dreams scatter, 
And I taste only regret.
Desires alone were never enough.
The world demanded more, 
Fate demanded sacrifice. 
Two enemies hope, and destiny never agrees.
If I appease one, the other abandons me.
And so, my heart, like glass, 
Like a fragile truth, it has broken.
We sat together on the shore, 
Listening to the waves whisper.
We played with storms, 
With the wild desires of this heart. 
But I did not know that
No one stays forever.
Even the sailor abandons the shore. 
Even love slips away.
Now I see clearly whether 
It is glass or a heart, it breaks. 
It breaks when trust is betrayed,
It breaks when lies are revealed, 
It breaks when love is given 
To someone who cannot hold it.
And I regret loving you, 
Regret trusting you, 
Regret giving you my body, 
My soul, my heart.
For in the end, whether it is glass 
Or a heart, it breaks.
