I walked through the land mines to get to you
They exploded right under my feet
Not once did I ever give into fear
Not once did I ever retreat
And I'll just keep on smiling through the pain
I won't eat, I won't drink, I won't sleep
But once I arrived, I soon found out
The one you wanted wasn't me
So I began on my return trip
Across the field of land mines
It hurt every step; I kept going
I'd never let you see me cry
And I thought of a million scenarios
But why even bother to try?
I don't think that I'll ever tell you
How it really felt when you lied
I'm on top of the land mines as I kneel to pray
I'm crying as I keep repeating your name
I set off the land mines, I'm engulfed in flames
I try my best with love, but I never win the game
I just want to think of the good times
But that is all in the past
And I want to believe that you loved me
But how long could that love truly last
Now all I can think of is land mines
And how I am full of regret
I keep asking God for some happiness
But he just keeps on saying "not yet"
