I took your love I took your pain
I got left holding all the blame
Now it's time for my long walk in the rain
Through the heartache and back again
The bough was bent beneath the weight
It cracked in half in the hands of fate
When it learned the sorry's were all too late
It retreated back into that place to break
As I took my heart and gave it away
I asked you to keep it warm and safe
You promised me with a smile that it would be okay
As it shattered beneath the flame
Now I'm picking up scattered shards
My life not measured in time, but yards
The distance for us is too hard
Love for me isn't in the cards
Because we threw the jokers from the deck
I didn't know they'd be all that's left
So as the final wave does crest
I pray that it drags me out to sea
