I never thought I would ever find you
Now I am grateful that I could
I love you with all of my heart
More than I ever thought I could
The story started out so clearly
Rejected one too many times
The pain had gotten too heavy
Nearly crossing over the line
One broken heart, one shattered dream
That is when it all started to fall apart and rip at the seams
Tears started falling freely and quickly
I just wanted to stop the pain from beating
Continuing my life as I normally did
Beneath my happy disguise I hid
The pain Just couldnt get rid
No one was there to listen for I was still just a kid
I put myself out there, gave love another chance
However I got nowhere close to a glimmer of a romance
Rejected once again, wondering what I did that was so wrong
Was there any hope for me go on?
This time I locked my heart away
Put it high up on a shelf
Vowing to never let it out again
Until the day I reluctantly let someone in
He showed me love that I misbelieved as true
Unknowning of the damage he could do
Felt like he put a knife right into my heart
Shattering it in a million little pieces, not giving up until it was all torn apart
I was left there to pick up the pieces and to clean up the mess
Wondering why it happened again, continuelly I stressed
Was there something wrong with me..?
I couldnt understand how they all walked away so easily...
The pain was too much for me to bare, needed to find someway to make it cease
I started to cut myself, and I learned to love that release
It became a strong addiction, couldnt go a day without it
So everytime I felt pain, another body part I slit
The next heartbreak was one of the biggest of them all
He was there for so long, couldnt stand to let him see me fall
Too ashamed to get the help I needed, too afraid to crawl
I started to feel anger, so inspite of that I would punch out the wall
The next guy was my rebound, we fell way too fast
Moving like a car heading head first into a crash
So I decided to let him go
I was scared that I had no control
I put my heart, locked tightly in a cage, high back on that shelf
Vowed I would never let it down again unless I was sure of myself
I felt so lonely and abandoned for so long
The words to the song I was singer were all wrong
Still hurting myself to ease the pain inside
Tired of living, to the point where I would rather have died
So many lies, too much sorrow
Never did I want to see another tomorrow
Then one night, so very dark
This one came and stole my heart
Right before I was going to jump of the edge
He grabbed my hand and pulled me off the ledge
He wiped my tears away from my eyes
and then and there he promised me no more lies
He held me close promising he would never leave
I felt his words in my heart and for once I started to believe
He knew of my past, my pain and my scars and loved me anyway
He said as long as I would let him, he would love me each and everyday
Something changed, somewhere along the line
As I now feel his hands in mine
He is still by my side and he says his feelings are strong and true
I am so grateful to have someone I love who loves me too
Thought I was far too broken to give out my heart
I feel as though I can trust him to never rip it apart
I know I will love him till the very end
He is the one, my very best friend
He helped my heart to heal and mend
I own him so very much, becauase he saved my life
He is the one that got rid of my need for the knife
