Could have brought my heart back So it was once again mine to lose I muffled my voice in hesitation And I gave you the chance to choose You didn't try to even reach out As I gave you opportunity to do Instead you used your words to woo me And in wooing make me the obedient fool I told you so many times before That from your words I am immune They only disrespected me When you expected too much too soon And now you start to hold your tongue But it is too late as it was before Your promise of trying and dealing with the pain Is a lie I shall be a fool of no more

A Chance Too Soon
Could have brought my heart back So it was once again mine to lose I muffled my voice in hesitation And I gave you the chance to choose You didn't try to even reach out As I gave you opportunity to do Instead you used your words to woo me And in wooing make me the obedient fool I told you so many times before That from your words I am immune They only disrespected me When you expected too much too soon And now you start to hold your tongue But it is too late as it was before Your promise of trying and dealing with the pain Is a lie I shall be a fool of no more
