Betrayed By My Own Heart

I am betrayed by my own heart
It's a crime to love 
How could my heart do this again 
Broken and wrecked  
I can't trust my heart 
Why would you love again... Why? 
After all the hurt, my heart still has hope... The hope of love!  
I am betrayed by my own heart 
Why would you want to shackle my soul and enslave me once more 
Loving someone is a punishment 
I spend my time counting the seconds when they leave to be with another... Their perfect mate
I will never be rejected again 
They pretend they care then crush me... Love... Takes all you've  got
I can't trust my heart 
The hope of love... Endless love, don't belong here, only betrayal and pain 
I am betrayed by my own heart 
It hurts to  know it's your own heart you can't trust 
Loving someone means giving everything
I can't give myself again... I can't! 
I will never allow myself to say those words again 'I love you', forbidden words 
It's better to love and lost than never to love at all...isn't that a crime...  I only know lost 
I don't want to love again.. No... No.. No more pain... That hurt will never come again 
I will not be betrayed by my own heart
