I thought I knew

[PittyBird]

I thought I knew what I wanted
I thought I knew what was good for me
I thought I knew what to look for
I thought I had it when you came to me

I thought we were so happy
I thought we had years ahead
I thought together we'd be so perfect
I thought our love would never go dead

I thought I knew how to handle it
I thought I knew how to kill the pain
I thought you really loved me...
I guess that's what I get for thinking.

no, that's what you get for being human. if you hadn't tried, and followed your heart, the lines would have started with I wonder what...

no matter what, at least you tried. great piece, evocative in it's tone, but too despondent. all the best.
