Shorthanded

In order to be loved respect is needed

To give yourself completely

To another person knowing they can pick you apart

Knowing that by a flick of their wrist they can break your heart

Once broken it can never again be completed and

What can take you years to build can be torn apart in a second of guilt

It takes a lifetime to create, but love can be replaced with purebred hate

In the blink of an eye you'll be branded and both will end up shorthanded

Betray everything you've ever known

You'll betray, regret but not before it is too late

Betray everything you've ever known

You'll betray, regret but not before it is too late

A passion so strong it can turn doubt into stone

You find once in a lifetime if you overcome

The difficulties to give everything you have in order to live

With a person who has the power to rule

Your insides in whichever way he chooses

You'll be here but will you stay here, you can never convince my heart

Sometimes you lose and sometimes you win can you feel the difference?

You'll betray everything you've ever known

You'll betray, regret but not before it is too late

Betray everything you've ever known

You'll betray, regret but not before it is too late

Now you have to choose, take the risk or you loose

The latter will leave you shorthanded

And to take the risk can crush your bones

Decisions cracking in the back of your mind, making you wanting to die

You'll be here but will you stay here, you can never convince my heart

Corrupting the mind of another with false promises

Not realizing you smother everything it was meant to be

When your greatest fear is to end up shorthanded

Be careful where your seed is planted

You'll betray!
