The pieces left behind
A constant smile buries
the tragic tale behind me
Some are haunted by love
and others run from the
tramatizing truth
There's a lot in the world
That I just don't believe in;
I've always been to rational,
too cynical,
To let myself get swept up in stories
That would give me false hope.
I feared getting my hopes up too high,
And then falling so far down
I would never be the same.
All of this but I still
Chose to believe in you;
The moment I put my trust in you
Was the moment my world
Started to crash down
I didn't even notice I was falling
Until I was halfway down
And you weren't there to catch me.
I hit the ground hard and
I'm still trying to find all of my broken
pieces.
