With her loneliness she couldn't cope,
And so she tore us apart,
Diminishing all hope;
I should've seen this from the start...
Her smile wiped my troubles.
Her eyes gave me chills.
Her beauty made me humble.
Her love made my heart fill.
I saw her true cracks
As I saw her weep.
I wanted to put her pieces back,
But I was afraid I'd fall too deep.
I was slowly being sucked
Into her beauty, imprisoned,
But I was out of luck;
This love was nonexistent.
While helping her heal
I fell through the cracks,
And as the cracks sealed.
Into the darkness I was trapped.
I gave everything to her,
Only to be betrayed.
I fell in love with her,
But in another bed she laid.
She had her flaws
I was willing to accept.
The most beautiful she was,
But again she slept.
With her loneliness she couldn't cope,
And so she tore us apart,
Diminishing all hope;
I should've seen this from the start...
