Burned and Broken

How many times do I have to go through this

Before it penetrates the barricades and barriers

Set forth? They're set forth, just set it down

And how many times do I have to break my heart

Before it permanently falls to pieces, million pieces?

(Just let this heart go, let this heart go...)

But it's what I know

Is that when you go

My heart hangs between my conscience and my soul

But it's what you said

After the lies and bloodshed

That is making it so hard to let go

How many times do we have to go through this

Before we realize that all the dreams we worked so hard for

Are lost? They're gone forever

And how many days will it be until you see

That I'm drifting farther from our vision of perfection?

(It's so hard for us to be just friends)

Of all that I wanted

And all that i needed

Is now slipping from my grasp, I cant let go

Of your eyes

And of your smile

And everything we had, that is now burned and broken
