Broke


He broke my heart Like noticing the way your first love looked at you Looks at another That you'll never be the same for each other He broke my heart That felt like ripping fresh applied wax off a hairy leg He broke my heart That felt like taking your next breath and inside feeling dead He broke my heart The way you break your favorite vase And try to piece it back together but there will always be the missing pieces that chipped away He broke my heart Like a last breath with no goodbyes He broke my heart Like muffled cries and empty dried red eyes He broke my heart Like Christmas with no home He broke my heart Like mistaking lonely and alone Like calling depression sad Like smiling away your tears And love over powered by fear You broke my heart Like dying with a unfulfilled dream You broke my heart And you didn't even see it You broke my heart And walked away in the wake of my undoing How could you not noticed? That you broke my heart
