Broken

You left me with nothing at all;
Nothing but my freely falling tears.
And the urge to pick up the phone and call
You so you can take away all my fears.

But I don’t have that now; I don’t have you.
I want to beg you to come back to me.
I don’t want to hear you say that we’re through;
Your girlfriend, again, is what I want to be.

But you don’t love me anymore,
And I just can’t figure out why.
Did you begin to find me as a bore?
Did you expect me to be able to fly?

You were honest, you never lied,
But can’t you see what you’re doing to me?
For you, my love, I would have died.
But now you only want to be free.

Oh how tragic, when one person is so in love,
And the other is totally out of it.
I thought I was sent an Angel from above;
My dark lonely heart was finally lit.

But now it’s dark once again,
And there’s a big, empty void in me.
Why do I let myself trust men?
From my heart, they always flee.

I can’t deal with heartbreak anymore,
But I’m so afraid of being alone.
I have to pick myself up out of this floor,
And stop waiting for your call by the phone.

It hurts so badly right now,
How long will this pain last?
I want to be ok again, but I don’t know how;
I want it all to go away fast.

I have to resist this urge to end my life,
I know I’m worth more than this.
All I wanted to do was be your wife,
I have to find a new source of bliss.

I will be ok, I must be ok.
Oh God, why does it hurt so bad?
I need you to take this pain away,
I never thought I could feel so sad.

I want to hurt you like you hurt me
Why do I deserve all this pain?
You did nothing but desert me,
But in your hurt, do I really have anything to gain?

It’s been two months now,
And I’ve stopped crying myself to sleep.
I heard you have yourself a new gal,
If I saw you together the pain would cut too deep.

Though I still dream of tasting your lips,
I’ve pretty much pushed you out of my head.
My mind has become like a coat that zips,
And hides the thoughts that make me wish I were dead.

How can you be with someone already?
I still hurt too bad to date.
Now you have a girlfriend that is steady,
And I feel stuck in my fate.

Maybe I will be alone forever;
That sounds better than another broken heart.
I didn’t give my heart to you to sever,
But you took it apiece part by part.

I’ll think of you every day,
I think you’ll always have my heart.
But now I know I’ll be ok,
I no longer feel torn apart.
