If You Never Try
Sometimes everything is a lie
The way he touched you
Kissed you and ran his fingers in your hair
Sometimes your heart breaks
It's all in despair
He walks away
You bite your lip to hold it back
Tears form in your eyes
Cloud your vision and you wonder why
Standing alone on the street in the rain
Wondering why they're all the same
They tell you what you want to hear
Get what they want and take it all back
You gave it your heart
From the very start
Just to see it spit back
Cry, and cry
You loose yourself in sadness
Try to find a reason why
Get hung up in the past
But not so fast
If you let yourself cry for too long
Your eyes will cloud
You won't see anything around
Your other half could be standing there
Arms open wide
But you will never find out
If you never try
