Paint It Black

by Jenni Marie   Jul 7, 2008


Used to be so complete, heart was pure and light
Only now left feeling low, confused and contrite
Wondering what happened to passion we used to feel
Used to trust, but now emotions must be concealed

Days are long, nights are filled with endless pain
How can love still be here yet tinged with disdain?
Once believed in you, in true love, in us together
Guess you were never one to believe in forever

With each passing day, armour crumbling a little more
Why still love you when it's clearly her that you adore?
Yet even though you're with her, whisper you love me
However can't be sure, of this I have no guarentee

So you keep on carelessly playing with my emotions
Are you aware everyday you leave me even more broken
Seems I'm just your puppet on a string, you have my heart
Love you more every day yet always wish for you to depart

Never knew it possible to feel so lost, small and confused
Know how much I love you yet my trust you constantly abuse
So continue with what you're doing, I'm here for you to attack
Thanks to you my once angelic heart has become ivory black
