No strings attached

We’re tied to each other,
tied to our future,
to a lie.

When you said “I will”
Did you just mean
“I will try”?

Don’t say you’ll always love me
if you know that’s not the truth.

Don’t say you’ll always need me
like you used to in your youth.

We can’t make promises
for things we can’t foresee.

So please don’t tell me
you will always be in love with me.
