I gave you my heart on a silver platter
Not that it would even matter

Whether I adorned you in gold
Or loved you until we grew old

Your love was far too great a price
And there remains my one and only vice

To love to deep is such a burden
And on the stage of love
I draw the curtain

If romanticism
Is the foundation of modern love
Then I will romanticize
Til' the day I die

You could've given me the stars
Wrapped in silver wrapping paper
And it still wouldn't be enough

She desires the artist
And the dreamer
But is unwilling to pay the price
Of the dream

She was a blazing wildfire
But what she didn't realize
Is that she danced with a prince
Who carried ashes in his pockets

I never knew
That angels
Dressed in mundane clothing
Could enter my life
And offer up shards of light
To slowly piece together
My fractured heart
