I've been cheated,
I've been harmed,
Abused and crushed,
Pushed to the ground,
I've been told lies,
Too many times,
Been through the games,
And dealt with self-inflicted shame.
You've been hurt,
Times before,
Your heart was locked,
I can't open that door,
You've been beaten,
Trampled down,
Been through the bull shit,
Many times around.
Now we are here.
Both of us scarred,
Both of us together,
Yet alone, in love,
We say for forever,
However the truth is,
That we both know inside,
That forever will be too hard to hide,
Is that I will hurt you,
Before I let you hurt me,
And you are the same,
And our eyes do see,
That because of our pain,
Because of our scars,
Because of our past,
A lock's on our hearts.
I can't bring myself to see through my pain,
You can't bring yourself to knock off the blame,
Neither of us are willing,
To sacrifice ourselves,
To one another,
Because our hearts still aren't ours.
They have been shattered,
Stripped from substance,
And we no longer own them,
They no longer function.
I can't feel,
Neither can you,
Pain owns our hearts,
Sad but true.
