Analysis of Shattered



My mind is raceing,My heart is thumping
I'm not telling you nothing.
You've felt that fire,You know that desire.
Sometimes I wish I'd never met you,
Never seen felt what a real man can be.
 It's really destroying me.
My Hopes and Dreams get shattered every time.
My heart starts to feel,it falls apart and sees whats real.
I think I've found someone who really matters,
Then my heart just gets shattered.
