Frozen Broken Heart

For every second forever broken,
For every lie ever told
We have come to know every fear.
To stay away from the shadows.
To never speak again.
Never read again, every page is a law.
Never speak again, it's just false hope.
Never speak again, because I can't find the truth.
Never run again, your fear will catch you.
Never breathe again, it makes things so much easier.
But I haven't ran,
Haven't said a word.
And I can't find my way out.
Of this world you've created.
To keep me locked inside,
To keep my screams silent,
To keep my eyes blind,
To keep my fingers frozen,
To keep my heart broken.
Because whether or not I'm frozen
When i thaw my heart will shatter.
The coldness has made it worse,
The isolation has set me off.
The fallen tears have torn me apart,
The knowing eyes send me to my knees,
The sudden gasps tell my I've failed,
The punches ring my ears,
The broken glass sends me over the edge.
For every second forever broken,
For every lie ever told.
What's even worse,
Is that I believed you.
