Like an animal you caged me and led me to the slaughter
You ripped apart my chest and exposed my beating heart
You grasped it in your hands and watched my soul crumble as you squashed it in my face

You trampled upon my feelings and spat words of hatred and despair
You looked into my eyes and called me obtuse,
How ironic that i gave you my scars and you promised to heal them, only to deepen them and break my soul beyond repair

You were my moon and stars in the dark of night, or so i thought,
only to find that I was the light and you my darkness
Like seasons change and the tide forces the sea to the earth and smothers everything in sight,
As mountains erupt and turn into violent volcanoes ready to destroy every living thing in it's path,
so too did your love run cold
and your heart froze
