Broken pieces in blood soaked hands
Tears rain down and kill my love
Slowly ceasing, vision clearing
Glare at you
Incensed with hate
And all I can say
Give it away
All these dreams and hearts you've broken
For your sickening collection
You saw my love as a token
I won't let you do this again
No more broken dreams for your display
So how would you think, would you feel
If someone did to you
What you did to break me down
You'd know how I feel right now
So why don't you
Just go away
All my dreams, my heart you've broken
For your psychotic collection
And here I lay, on my dreams choking
Because I let you do this again
Another broken dream in your case
Get away, I don't want what you call love
Today,
I am taking back my dreams
Because you see
Even broken they belong to me.
Someday
All the dreams, the heart's you've broken
Lying cracked in your possession
Will come after your own dreams and heart
The breath in your lungs will betray you
And your dreams will lie broken
In your case.
