Your voice was the only part you would reveal
Painting pictures in my mind oh so ideal
We'd talk about everything, we'd talk about nothing
The relationship we had became increasingly trusting.

Your voice made me laugh with the utmost cheer,
It made me feel like you were close, that you were near
For days on end I'd absorb and listen
The pink feeling of love in my heart grew to a bright Crimson.

Your voice became a drug to me in a way
You'd have to leave and I'd beg you to stay
I was putty in your hands and it didn't matter how you molded me
Our future together I could no longer foresee.

Your voice blinded me from seeing the truth I will admit
I wanted you to commit, to submit, but you were secretly unfit
Deep in my heart I knew the truth
My anger was hidden but inside me continued to brew.

Your voice became my sorrow
I followed your path and my heart became completely hollow
When others say phrases
I immediately flash back to your praises and wondered if these fits of rage and self loathing were just phases.

Your voice still haunts me to this day
I can only pray that I will stop remembering the way you could so easily betray
My heart will never again be on display
It will only be filled with hate and dismay
And to think that this burning hate came from someone I used to think of so great.

Your voice destroyed me, I hope you're happy
I hope you see my face in whomever you choose to marry and you remember what you did and why
And chance of love I ever had has surely died
But hopefully with the changes of the tide I can sigh and you'll be a distant memory.

You and your lovely voice that have haunted me.
