Ransom my Heart

Ransom my heart,
Take it away,
I have no need for it now,
Do what you may.

It's been broken in pieces,
And can't be repaired,
Love came to hurt it,
And nothing was spared.

I used to think love,
Was kind and tame,
Now I know it's nothing,
But a cruel, hard game.

Ransom my heart,
Take it away,
I used to think my heart was mine,
But love led it astray.
