Heart Demolition

i felt my life come tumbling down.
like a bride without a wedding gown.
just like the day you left me.
clowns come out to play.

i felt the walls of my mind drop down slowly.
features on my face turning to a frown.
just like the day,my son hurt himself.
clowns come out to play.

i felt the cement crumbling down.
my life turned upside down and around.
just like the day,rachel lost her innocence.
clowns come out to play.

i felt the mortar sprinkle down.
my emotions drop to the ground.
just like the day,penny went her way.
clowns come out to play.

i felt the foundations banging down.
my heart lay wounded on the ground.
just like the day, my father died.
clowns come out to play.

i felt the site rebuilt being settled down.
to create a building up again.
just like the day you all said you love me.
will clowns come out to play.
