A rose for the brokenhearted

Gave you my heart and hoped you could save it, Always giving bits and pieces of myself to someone who doesn't care, and it ain't fair. Always expecting the most From someone who isn't there. But that's life, and I know It takes more than once to get it right. At the moment, it feels like I'm losing this fight. Empty promises are all I ever got from you, Thinking of what I could do to get that love back from you. But let's face it, I should've known from the beginning you faked it. I wish you never would've looked my way s**t, got me out here feeling basic. But it was really you that ain't s**t. So I'm giving a rose to the brokenhearted Because my dearly beloved has departed. To all those who know my pain, I hope it never comes again, 'Cause we're better off in the end. Your heart is not meant to be broken, But opened for the love you deserve, and they'll show it. Never should you have to question that love, Because you'll know it. And I pray you hold onto it, And don't walk out before they prove it.
