Heartbreak II

I thought you could've known
How much I loved you and
How much I cared for you
And thought you returned my affections

I never could've seen
The way you were deceiving me
Casting me for the fool
In your sick little play of twisted lies

I wish I could've known
That you were never going to love me
Or hold my heart and treasure it
Rather than throw it away and break it

I probably could've predicted
The heartbreak you'd put me through
When I first saw your too-perfect face

God, I wish I could let it go
How much you hurt me before
But I can't expect myself to
Not after you broke me

Tore down my dreams of me and you
Stole my heart only to hold it hostage before killing it
And then taking my hopes and shattering them

So all that was left of me
Were broken dreams
Fallen hopes
And bitter love

I wish I could scream at you right now
How much I hate you
And how much I want you to leave my memories

But you won't ever leave my mind
Because you're always right there
Reminding me of everything I lost
That I treasured more than anything

You left me with this broken heart
That just won't seem to mend
I want to see the sunshine
After you left me for dead
