Millions of little pieces

Shattered and broken lying on the floor

See the pain I hide within

Releasing it when I cut into my skin



Wanted to find a little bit of happiness

But somehow it never seemed to stay

All sense of good emotions

Packed their bags and walked the other way



Why did they always leave

Was it that I am not deserving

Why couldnt I ever keep love near

Is it that I am not worthy



Tears fall down my face

Tainted and tattered

My heart is no longer able to mend

For I have been too bruised and battered



No don't touch me

I bruise too easily

and besides if you were to feel

You may be too ashamed of what you would find



Just do it, do what everyone else does

Look me in the eye, tell me you no longer can do this

And leave me stranded all alone

So far from a place familiar, so far away from home



Did you ever really love me

Or was it all a joke right from the start

Did you intend to lead me astray

Or along the way did you just make up the parts



I believed you, I really did

You took away my fears, helped me to show all that I hid

How could you do this to me, cause me so much pain

How could you be so selfish, so naive and vain



I am through with love, such a devious mistake

I put my heart on the line and in the end all I got was heartache

You can't put back the broken pieces, they are too broken to mend

I am so sorry to tell you, but this is the end



Goodbye and goodnight

I will not be here when you wake

You thought you were just being funny

But the end result: Its my life that you would eventually take.
