I wore my heart on my sleeve today.
I wore it to show you i wasnt afraid.
I wore it to say that i was bold.
I wore it to show you i can take a chance.
I was so proud of myself for taking a stand,to show you how i felt.
No one told me that it wasnt the smartest thing to do.
For you see my dear,wearing my heart on my sleeve
isnt what i was supposed to do.
I never thought of it leading to my destruction.
This building i started was just underway for construction.
I forgot the concrete needed to be laid.
Foundation was not established.
I dove right in.
I thought i was ready,i thought i could survive.
So i wore my heart proudly.
Only something happened to make me put my heart away.
The one i trusted.
Said this heart on your sleeve has made you too brazen,
and with a drop of a hat,you snipped my sleeve.
I tried to save my heart by pulling away,but you managed to cut half.
I no longer walked with my head held high.
I walked with tears and a terrible sigh.
Arriving at my home,the pictures i saw only made me turn cold.
Alone i sat mending my heart,but it just couldnt be repaired.
Living a life of lies now,dont you see you've left me in despair?
I see you laugh,you see me cry.
I see you live,you see me die.
Alone i sit,just as alone i sat.
Working on this heart of mine.
This love i thought was divine.
Only to be twisted with lies.
A word you have to speak,my mind races with wonder.
Could it be the ones i long to hear!
I love you.No,thats not it.
I want you.No,still not it.
I need you now and forever.No,but it was said in a dream.
The words you spoke....IM TAKING HER TO PROM!!!
Oh!! how i felt the seams that i just started be torn again.
WHY NOW!!
WHY HERE!!
WHY ME!!
WHY ME!!...why me...why me...
