Into tiny pieces,
Watching them fall to my feet,
Burning tears like rain
Blurring my vision.
Whispered questions to you
Sent on the gentle breeze
Why couldn't i hurt you,
Even just a little bit.
Why didn't losing me
Break you just a little.
Sobbing into my pillow
Wishing i hadn't done this,
Because the only one hurting is me.
I'd give a kings ransom
To see your step falter.
How Many Nights
Did i cry for you?
I wasted my tears,
For a love only i felt
So much love spent
On someone so numb.
I tore down walls
Loved you as best i could
Baby you cried to me
But it doesn't hurt you
That you tear me apart.
Fake smiles through my tears
Whispered words to friends
Pretending I'm alive, I'm ok
Scared if someone gets close
They will see me falling apart.
I'm not doing ok,
I'm not alive, or dead
I'm caught in a place
Where i hate you passionately
But would kill to hold you again.
Heres the key to my heart,
Bury it under your lies,
Here's my soul
Keep it locked away.
I don't need you,
I need to see your pain.
