A promise broken is a heart crushed and dying
Waiting for the day it'll be rid of the lying
Patiently awaiting the day it'll be free at last
When at last it'll be able to beat free and fast
 
Frozen blue blood rushes through my veins
Everywhere is racked with excruciating pains
Bruises and scrapes litter my decaying heart
In vain it tries to keep from falling apart
 
But it can never be completely ever fully healed
Of the effects of the battle that was fought with no shield
During that battle I let it all go
All my emotions were put out for show
Not a single feeling did I hide
Huh, I couldn't hide them if I tried
 
I naively bared it all for you to see
I thought that's what you wanted from me
Apparently I was so terribly wrong
You gave me an answer that didn't take long
 
I should've obeyed the warnings and noticed the signs
And questioned your words that had no reason or rhyme
I should have seen through your lies much sooner
Instead of being a sentimental crooner
 
Blind, unrequited love is a messy affair
It never ends well for the one who cares
If ones not careful, a heart can be broken into pieces
That'll never be fixed, no matter the adhesive
 
Sometimes things can never ever be repaired
Love is something that's best when shared
If I give you the power, and you reject me
Cracked corners and dents is all you'll see
 
                                                         because...
 
A promise broken is a heart crushed and dying
Waiting for the day it'll be rid of the lying
Patiently awaiting the day it'll be free at last
When at last it'll be able to beat free and fast
