Broken

I never let my feelings show,
I never let anybody know.
Tired of living like a blind man,
It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do.
Cause being with me
Must have damn near killed you! 
Pullin my heart from under the knife
I'm alone, so alone.
Love is made and just thrown away.
Tryin to figure out
Where the whole thing went wrong.
There were no angry words at all
Nothing much for us to say!
Swept up inside a whirlwind,
with shattered dreams
And a broken heart.
If only I had known
I'd never get to hear your voice again.
