I felt my world come crashing in.
All of your lies were paper thin.
Why did you have to go
And break my heart?
There is a full moon in the sky
Bigger than the hurt you left inside.
Luna, she knows
I was a fool for you.
I know it shouldn't be a shame,
That I have loved your life in vain.
You could never have been true,
No matter how close I kept you to me.
Your heart's been shattered like a vase.
The pieces, like tile, were mortered
back into place.
The slivers of your pain,
Like a window of glass stained.
Fragmented, and frail,
Contagious and strong,
Lacking conviction,
Can't help but be wrong.
Mosaic love,
You've turned your back on me.
Now I'm to blind to see
Just what I've got to do
To get myself over you.
I felt my world come crashing in.
All of your lies were paper thin.
Why did you have to go
And break my heart, again?
Hecate knows that I've been strong.
I should have seen it all along.
We were destined to fail in -
To each other's orbit.
How in the world will I
Get by with this lowly high?
Diana knows
All your changing faces,
Are a puzzle in the dark.
Mosaic love,
You've turned your back on me.
Now I'm to blind to see
Just what I've got to do
To get myself over you.
This is what it is to love,
And be loved,
By someone with a broken heart.
Never to complete,
The cycle does repeat,
Like a beam of moonlight
In a cathedral panel -
Night after night,
Night after night,
Night after night,
Night after night,
Never again to know
A day without a thought of you.
Mosaic love,
You've turned your back on me.
Now I'm to blind to see
Just what I've got to do
To get myself over you.
I felt my world come crashing in.
All of your lies were paper thin.
Why did you have to go
And break my heart, again?

Mosaic love,

Now I'm to blind to see
Just what I've got to do
To get myself over you.
Never again to know
A day without a thought of you...
All of your lies were paper thin.

I got the idea for this one a few weeks ago. I wrote the refrain containing the title around an existing melody I had last week. I just finished the rest of it in about half an hour, but it took about an hour longer to work on the arrangement. A mosaic is rarely put together evenly, and for that reason, I created a jagged architecture for this song that would probably topple if I tried to fit more into it. I hope you like it.
