Never  
  
You tell me of days filled with hope  
Yet all I am given is despair  
Your lips speak of the truth  
All I get are lies  
I am told of a sparkling future  
What I have left is a dark and bitter past  
I hear your talk of forever  
What I am given is the never  
I dream of that future  
That future built of gold  
Craving that warm embrace  
Never again feeling the pain  
Instead I get a future built of lead  
A frozen smile upon my lips  
Constantly struggling through that river of pain  
Wishing, always wishing it wasn't true  
But the reality is  
You're gone  
And I am left behind all alone  
Left behind with a handful of dreams  
Forever left with the bitter taste of that possible forever  
Yet all I have received is the never
