Two lovers, words replaced with traded looks
Little did I know that this would never last
I gave my love and got it back hung on meat hooks
I don't know what happened, it went so fast
But it brought up memories from love's failed past
In my chest, my heart no longer beats
The victim of sweetened whispered lies
Hopeless love, written on blank sheets
All seem to carry hate in love's disguise
After every encounter part of me dies
My broken heart now held together by string
It has become so hard to just give trust
Words spoken always seem to hollowly ring
As I sit chewing on love's putrid, sour crust
All alone, feeling heart break's lonely lust
I am on my knees, pleading to know what I did wrong
For someone to tell me how this happened and why
I have searched my soul, clawed my mind for so long
But the answers, the understanding just pass me by
I am begging, please help me see why love will deny
Those four letters are now so devastatingly savage
Love, a word that has slowly torn me apart
A festering wound within that wants only to ravage
Slowly beginning to wish I never loved from the start
Do you know how to heal a broken heart?
