I'D Given You My Heart

I remember when it was the two of us, We tackled the world, and the world unfurled. Yes things were tough, but we'd be okay cause together we'd go grey. But then a change came and I didn't know the rules of that game. The bomb in Cape Town, first brought my world down, Then your weekend away, well what can I say? "I" went for mental tinkering, what the @#$% was I thinkering? But your week away, is what caused me to pray. And when you confessed, I crumpled to the floor like a sack of hot mess, In tears I asked, "What have you done?" I saw our ten years reduced to none. Cause when you replied, a part of me died, You see, I'd given you my heart, and you ripped it apart. Your infidelity took the best of me, and @#$%^& with the rest of me, I don't wish you ill, a part of me loves you still, But you did cheat, now you are one with deceit. You see, I'd given you my heart, and you ripped it apart. You made a hole in my soul, that used to be whole, I was known as he with the grin, but the grin became thin, In anger and pain I started again, You see I'd given you my heart, and you ripped it apart It hasn't been easy to get going again, I'm not the same cause ruins remain. I got on with my life, I found me a wife, She's too honest and true, so I shouldn't be blue. But when I gave you my heart, you ripped it apart.
