The Sound Of It Breaking



Shattered me a blow of your action
Stood still numb broken without any reaction

Thought what wrong did I do
 threw me what did you

I love still my heart aches
You didn't come back my heart still awaits

I still look at you and smile with a sorrow
Loving you with such pain I had to borrow

I'm standing still do you even see
You wanted us to be one wasn't that we

I cry sometimes and I pray for you to be fine
I wipe my tears and say you wasn't meant to be mine

Indeed I fell and I fell so hard and deep
I ran out of tears to weep

Maybe one day you'll see what I was
You was the one who held my world in a pause

Maybe I wasn't good enough for your taste
I'm a human with feelings not a waste

I surrender yet I love this is what is going to be my fate
I'll wait another life another year another month another date
