If You Could Look Straight Through Me

If you could look straight through me, and look into my soul You'd see a heart that once held love ripped to shreds and torn apart You'd see a heart that once was strong, so hard it's turned to stone If you could see straight through me, and see inside my head You'd find all the good memories in ashes, charred and dead Could there be a remedy, is there any cure to overcome the hurt and hate we've put each other through To think we'll never love again, not a love that's true It all seems such a waste now, so evil and so cruel It's as if love has taken us and turned us into fools We did not treat it with respect, we've broken all the rules We had the best intentions but maybe not the tools If you could look straight through me, looked deep into my eyes You'd see the pain and sadness You'd see a fire that's died A spark can so suddenly be turned into a flame But then just as suddenly, be put out again
