A Heart Sealed Away

Look at what you've done to me...
You've gone and shattered my pride...
And what's worst of all...
Is it that you've broken my heart...
Once I saw your back turned to me
And the image of you fading before my eyes
That's when I decided to
Seal away everything that I got!
And hide it behind my cold, withered heart!

Who needs love when it only causes pain?
I'd rather die whan to face it again
Hatred now will be the only shield I need
For I wont deal with this lie ever again!

No more tears for me to shed...
No more unnecessary worries...
My heart will now remain...
Forever independant...
Damn this world for all I care
For there isn't anything here for me
I now that love is fake
And emotions are rather pointless
Then why suffer when it all should end!

Who needs love when it only causes pain?
I'd rather die whan to face it again
Hatred now will be the only shield I need
For I wont deal with this lie ever again!
