Broken

Why must it be this way?

The trust we built has faded grey

When will this all be gone

You left me all alone, you left me holding on

today passed so long ago

you left me bruised and broken

I had no chance to grow

I never thought it would come to this

But there's so much more bad than the good times I'll miss

I'm not sorry it turned out this way

because the only way you acted only left me saying "life goes on"

it means nothing now

because it worked out once but I'm wondering how

and how can you lie when you know it's true

I'll never forget what you broke in two

a lifeline worn from the love we shared

but trying to hold didn't have a prayer

and it crushes down, it crushes down on me

what you offered wasn't love just misery

I look around my room and I think of you

and I hope you never know what you put me through

all those letters you wrote, those words burn in my head

lies written in stone

don't you remember what we said?
