Masquerade

Windswept and cold, but the night has no feeling.
I soak up the rain, but my heart is not healing.
Heartbroken and sad, and feeling a little let down.
The silence is so loud, and yet there's no sound.

I wish to break these chains, biting into my heart.
I'm bound to an eternity of always falling apart.
The night settles in, the sun has laid its head,
I wait to find the love, when I know that it is dead.

Naked in the dark, I am searching for some sleep.
Bleeding through invisible wounds that are too deep.
I'm scared of what you've done to me, why I am alone,
Because I know it's not your fault, it's entirely my own.

Pills won't cure the constant headaches that I get,
Knives can't cut out the memories I wish to forget.
I'm feeling a little defeated and I guess it really shows,
But this is the path I'm walking; this is the path I chose.

Everything was a lie, and no truth was ever spoken.
You told me you could heal my heart, so broken.
Through crystal eyes, I see now the world is wrecked.
Fighting back tears in a world you claimed was perfect,

Windswept and cold, the night has no sympathy to spare.
It makes no difference now that my decision was unfair.
Heartbroken and sad, the wind is sharper than any blade.
Illusions broke my heart; our love was a great masquerade.
