Turn My Heart to Dust

The story goes
"That sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words will never hurt me"

Well you've thrown your stones
You tossed the sticks
You never broke my bones,
Yet you shattered my heart
From the words you let slip

You said you loved me
I gave you everything, babe
Everything I had was yours
My heart, my love,
You were the first that I let
Love me the way I let you

And now that you've left
All you do is tear me down
Say the rechid things
That prove all your words had been lies

My past haunts me,
for in it I hurt you a million times again
but you hurt me too, let us not forget
the way you made me feel
like I was all that kept you alive

For three years you've had my heart
For three years we've tore eachother apart
If it's not meant to be
than why do we keep coming back?

This whole thing has killed me
What would have happened
If instead of yelling, I held you instead
If I loved you just a little bit more?

I made this mess,
but so did you
We weren't perfect,
but I loved you none the less

I still love you,
with every piece of dust
that remains of my heart
from you walking away

Sticks and stones bruise,
but words tear me down
The way you said you don't love me
the way you say you hate me

How can things go from sleeping in your arms
To you finding someone new
In just a weeks time?

What happened to us?
The way we cuddled,
the way you loved me,
everything, has gone away.

I'm falling down,
on my knees I beg,
tried to get you to stay
but all I have in front of me
Is the mess I have made

You took your heart,
and you walked away,
without one look or care
you left me alone in dispair

I will love you forever,
that much I can swear.
Three years is too long to leave
in just the blink of an eye

But I must let go,
though it break my heart
so goodbye,
goodbye my love
goodbye my dreams
goodbye my heart
goodbye to the one thing I wanted

I'm sorry for everything
I know it's all my fault,
and with one final look,
I'll walk away,
never to return again...
