First Betrayal

It’s beautiful to be here
Wrapped inside your arms
It really is so perfect and so
Far away from harm

But I know, by god, with a few words
The spell will be undone
A tiny lie or disloyalty and
An evil web is spun

And I’ll cry
When that first betrayal comes
And I’ll cry
While the rest of me succumbs
And I’ll cry
When that first betrayal, first betrayal comes

You know it’s bound to happen
We can’t admit it won’t
So let’s relieve the pressure and leave
Well enough alone

Remember back to the first time
Your world was put on pause
When your first love revealed to you
There is no Santa Claus
