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.
