These lyrics just came to me. They were floating around in my head all day,
and finally at 3 am I got up to put them together and write them down.
Make me cry at your mercy
Break me to your desire
But there is one thing of mine
That I wish for you, to not acquire
Take all of me and trash it if you want to
Lie to me and make me believe it
You can strip me of everything I have left
But please dont take my pillar of strength
Because ...
*Ive been there and back again
Ive fallen and gotten up in pain
Seen my heart tear in half
Ive seen you turn to love me
Then turn around and laugh
Ive lost everything to everyone
I revolved around so many suns
Take anything you want from me
Make me blind so I cant see
Drown my ending, and kill my start
But please dont cut out my paper heart*
Simply said, and simply done
End anything and anyone
Smile like you mean it
But mean it only a lie
Lead me to blissful happiness
Then throw me down and make me cry
Tell me that only I, am the best
While you tell the same, to all the rest
Give the gift that means the world
One that was given to you by the last girl
Because ...
*Ive been there and back again
Ive fallen and gotten up in pain
Seen my heart tear in half
Ive seen you turn to love me
Then turn around and laugh
Ive lost everything to everyone
I revolved around so many suns
Take anything you want from me
Make me blind so I cant see
Drown my ending, and kill my start
But please dont cut out my paper heart*
All I can say in my defense
Is I live my life in past tense
My real true heart is forever gone
Shattered with an arrow, centered dead-on
A piece of it left, with each I did love
And maybe one day instead of water
All of my heart will rain from above
So if any mercy can be found in your soul
Leave me just this small piece of control
Because ...
*Ive been there and back again
Ive fallen and gotten up in pain
Seen my heart tear in half
Ive seen you turn to love me
Then turn around and laugh
Ive lost everything to everyone
I revolved around so many suns
Take anything you want from me
Make me blind so I cant see
Drown my ending, and kill my start
But please dont cut out my paper heart*
