Fidelity

I never loved you
But loved myself in you
The reflections of a dream, a vision
And I know that in your mind
I was only the revenge
For some wasted love
We lived together
And from us was composed a lying legend
That stifled our souls in pain
While the world thought us some eternal song
O the contempt of love
You were not mine, I was not yours
I shall leave
Two strangers that lived together
Leaving behind them
Lies
