Ridicule me. Degrade me. Lie to me.
Don’t be nice
It’ll take much more than that
To crack this heart of ice
Sweet somethings slip in one ear
And out the other
I could listen
But why bother?
It’s not real

And I’ll open my eyes
And you’ll be gone
Like the hope I once had for love
Fragile feelings found deep
Laying dormant as they sleep
Refusing to acknowledge the loneliness I keep
Let’s just go to bed

I’ll lay wrapped in your arms
And feel miserable
And ignore the happiness
Lurking in my head.
