Broken Melodies

I put my heart in a box and labled it as FRAGILE.......
When I gave it to you, you faked a little smile.....
I told you to take care of it and that it was the only thing I had left...
You pulled me close and whispered this won't be something you regret....

Like an idiot I believed everything you said...
And I'm going over every sweet thing in my head...
You told me you loved me and said you would never lie...
And now I know all of this was just a waste of my time...

I feel like I was your secret form of self pain....
Watch the memories I had pour from my veins...
Every smile that was hiding the truth...
Every stupid little I love you...

The look of hope is fading from my eyes...
And I'm alone silently screaming why....
My hair changing from a color to gray...
As I throw my life away....

Being held is a kind of addictive thing....
I'm gonna have my memories of you wiped clean
Maybe it was worth it maybe it wasn't at all....
However...I can't stand to see you fall..

In the end it all works out...even if the end hurts...
At least we know we could handle it for better or worse..
And I have just one thing to say...and it comes straight from me...
Your like that music box on my chest...your my broken melody...
