Glass Box

I kept my heart in a glass box You knew it didn't have any locks You shattered the glass with your strong hands You reached in and pulled it out I didn't know what you were about Foolishly I let you have it You looked at my heart and saw how much it was lit Pieces of glass lay on the ground You stepped over them to not make a sound You looked around Made sure no one was there Because I thought for sure you did care Care about my precious heart But you knew your goal right from the start You took a piece of glass that lay, And stabbed my heart without having anything to say Dark blood came pouring out All I could do was to shout You stepped in my blood You walked away leaving footprints, like leaving a trail of mud My heart lay dying for a while No longer was it able to smile
