It's as if my heart is sewn to yours
And as we grow apart,
The threads are ripping out of mine.
You have the stronger heart.

But my soft heart can feel each tear
You barely even flinch
I can't tell if you feel at all
As you rip me stich by stich.

And now I'm here, all ripped and torn
And here is where I'll stay
Pieces of my heart still belong to you
But you've had your final say.

Why can't you let me be happy without you?
Why must you make sure that I'm feeling pain?
Why is it so hard for you to tell the truth?
Why did you love me then take it away?

You were the one who laughed at my sorrow.
You never tried to give me your best.
I thought we were fine but your love is hollow.
I thought you were different. You're just like the rest.

Is it my fault for being so blind?
I made a promise that I didn't keep.
I swore I'd never regret our time.
But you are the reason I cry in my sleep.

You broke the girl with the golden smile.
You watched the light drain from her eyes.
A thousand I'm sorrys could never reclaim
The one who was your rainbow after the rain.

i know
there are
other fishes
in the sea
but it's so unfair
for you to
keep swimming
after choosing
me

Isn't a fresh start
A beautiful place to be.
Isn't a warm heart
Much nicer considerably.
Tell me, when I smile
Does your whole self smile too?
Cause when you stop to look my way,
That's what I can't help but do.
