the colors fade fast now
her hearts out of reach
so this is the lesson
they have been trying to teach
ice runs through her veins
frozen and cold
her fate would have shifted
had she listened to what they told
the new moon rises
as the bleak sun sets
she writes out her lies
and holds her regrets
his arms would protect her
he kept her hand steady
but to walk with out him
can we say she is ready
the puzzle he gave her
every piece in its place
yet she drowns in confusion
at the look on his face
the game was played wrong
all his rules they were followed
at last she must see
its her heart he has hollowed
her eyes are dry now
she feels no pain
but one thought of him
and its her heart that must change
her smile fades through
but her words still unspoken
the wounds he dug healed
but her heart its still broken
her heart bleeds out the secrets
that to her he once shared
her mind searches for the words
that told her he cared
an "i love you " thrown out there
into the mist
the lips that spoke truly
remain still unkissed
she knew one day he'd leave
but she didnt know now
now that hes gone
she just asks herself how
how could he say he loved her
and not even mean it
how could he want to kiss her
when hes never even dreamed it
she meant what she said
and said what she meant
she made sure her words
were never twisted or bent
so this is the story
of the girl who thought she knew
how to handle a heartbreak
or even an "i love you"
she wanders alone now
free from her past
but will always be under
the romance spell he has cast
