I'll watch you fall, laugh, mock you, wouldn't help for sure, until you get the resolution...Yeah, the resolution, to get up by yourself, without relying on two-faced unfaithful beings...Because when I stare into your eyes, I might just fall in love.

One broken heart
doesn't mean much to you
The girl will get over you soon, right?
It's not that important

But if it's a heart
that blossomed and bloomed
and shed its cocoon for you
and waited years for you to

realize its beauty
and you stomped down on it
it's like breaking a single white carnation
and dirtying it with red residue

But it still wouldn't
matter to you
After all
you don't have the heart to care
