I stare at a picture of you and me
A sweet and perfect moment
Captured in time and a silver frame
Both are smiling in total bliss
Unaware of what now is
The picture is fading
We both know it
But you keep up the show
Pretending all is fine
Saying you are still mine
A house that is not mine
On the wall a picture is hanging
Almost alike to the one I got
On the place that I should be
Stands another guy that is not me
This came as no surprise
For a while I have known
I was not the only one
To this I came to terms
Even still a small pain burns
Each time you talk to me
You say all is well
I keep my mouth shut
Not telling you what I know
Wondering when are you giving up the show
When will you be honest?
Tell me the truth
Tell me what I know
Tell me you got another friend
That out blissful picture has come to an end
