Opening my Eyes to Your World
You told me you felt nothing.
You tried to make your heart beat.
But, it only gave me something,
that I could never keep.
My eyes glowed at the sound of your name.
I shook at the touch of your fingertips.
I never got enough of your game.
You gave me my first kiss..
I remember crying on the phone,
as you told me you had to go.
You were destined to stay alone,
and you said I should know.
You ripped my heart into pieces that day.
I always thought I wasnt good enough.
But, now...Im understanding your ways.
My heart is cold and hands are rough.
As he holds his hand in mine,
my mouth is singing the most beautiful song.
But, I'll get away all in good time.
He knows I wont stay long.
I try to mean every word I say,
but as the cold front moves in...
feelings turn to stone and he is merely prey.
I swear I'll never love again.
His pleading eyes bring me no shame.
Im now trapped in your world of glass.
Im grateful for understanding this game.
I was so pathetic in my past.
I tell them they should wait for me.
I tell them I'll be there always.
I brush my lips against his innocently.
They eat up every lie I say.
Sometimes I use one or two of your lines for fun.
"Im not good in relationships, you see."
"I have no heart so I can't love anyone.."
"don't waste your time loving me."
Their eyes speak the same words mine used to.
But, I dont blame you for being that way.
"Exploding from steaming" by not saying I love you...
being a fool for throwing things away..
As warmth surrounds the numbness encasing me,
I feel no empathy for those open hearts.
With their doors swinging open...in my hand is the key.
I have but one thought: Tear them apart.
