The Toy
My mind always told me to leave and advance,
But my heart told me that I still have a chance.
So I listened to my heart and gave it a shot,
It was a bad choice, now look at the misery it brought.
I thought I'd have a chance, so I kept holding on,
But I know that the last ray of hope is gone.
Sadly, it was you, the boy I trusted the most,
Who left me feeling empty, just like a ghost.
Today, the little hope I had inside, you killed.
I don't know why you destroyed something you helped build.
I remember the tears I cried and I shed,
But the pain feels like I bled red instead.
You think I've been used?
That doesn’t bother me. To me that's normal news.
I got nothing to lose, nothing to gain.
I'm fed up with all this miserable pain.
So when someone tells me to try again,
Why should I bother? Nothing will change.
I know it will always be the same result:
Mission failed another personal insult.
I thought this would work, not leave me hurt.
Now I'm on the ground beside the dirt.
When I'm trying to forget, as I lay on my bed,
Those heartbreaking moments rush back to my head.
It was paradise each time I saw your face,
But now I feel like I'm stranded in space.
It was on this love road that I’ve journeyed so far,
That left me like this: afraid and scarred.
That road gave me too much pain to bear,
So I've decided. From now I'm gonna be solitaire.
The road I'm going for will have nothing to fear.
And all the sorrow I have inside will all disappear.
Nothing can change my decision. I trust nobody no more.
I'm not gonna play around. Love is no sport.
So I'm gonna go back to the same old me.
Yes, the shy girl reading books in the dress of green.
So, do me a favor and make your new girl feel special, no cheating and stuff.
Don't treat her like me, because one broken heart is enough.
