I wish I understand the way that I feel
Missing you after all this time
You broke my heart and beat me down
There were days I felt I couldn’t move
The warmth once granted by your presence
Turned to icy chill in your absence

Inside my chest a dull sound resounds
You strung me up and pulled me along
Empty promises, I swallowed them whole
I stood by silently as you made me dance
Like putty in your hand you shaped me
Changing me to follow your selfish agenda

Falsely supported by your steady hand
I played foolishly along
Then you cut my strings and I fell to the floor
Motionless I lied for days
A misfit toy with no owner
A depiction of  human character
