Half Empty

Half Empty

I bent my back so far
It broke
I swallowed my tongue so much
I started to choke
All for the foolish love
Of hope

I twisted my arm
In the hope of change
Listening to your promises
For it to last a second then back to same
I loved you for all the wrong reasons
And you pointed the blame
Guess love is blind
And a loosing hand in your game


A fool for your look
So desperate for your love
All self-respect I gave up
Your promises never lasting
Not enough began to be enough
I was never one for tough love

A heart handed to you
On a plate
So heartless
One moment is all it took you to break
And every day it got too late
To get up and take
My heart to somewhere safe.

Dear Mr Fate

Dear Mr Fate
It seems that you appear
Everytime I experience
A case of heartache
And you shine away my rainy cloud
And bring me hope
And remind me of what’s just around
Just around the corner
And everyday you continue to do so
My heart feels less like stone
And starts to turn warmer.

Everything

Everything

Did I not love you enough?
Did I not treat you right?
Did I not give you everything?
Blinded myself for you
For the sake of love?
Did I not try my hardest?
To only get stuck

And baby you had me stuck
Stuck between a rock and a hard place
Giving with everything I could bare
Loved you even when you made it impossible to care
And did I not keep walking by your side
When I shoulda left after every fight?

After all the hard work and tears
I head back home empty and full of heartache
Cause I worked myself to the bone
For you to say it was all a big mistake
Cause boy you’ve broken me down into pieces
Telling all these lies how I never even tried

Did I not break myself down for you?
Did I not water my soul down for you to bare?
For in the end for you not to care?
No baby cause I tried, I tried so hard I died
Everyday with you died another piece inside
And you’ll never know, they’ll never know
Just how it felt how you’d let me go.
