One Less Broken Heart

Every life tells a story. An open book of love, joy and mourning, wind, rain and storming. Search for the truth, sweeter than the passion fruit. Some things are better left unsaid. Silence instead. One less broken heart for me my friend. Gone, gone away from me, like the autumn leaves that fall from the tree. So free, so free. Time will find a way to numb all pain. Don't call my name. The red rose you gave me wilted in the rain What a fragile song of misery, this life that told a story. I am tired of the luminous glow that fades. The brilliance in my life that you erased. Run, run away. Far away. Like the eagles fly, one less lie, one less lie. Yeah! Every life tells a story, like an open book of morning glory. One less broken heart for me. Gone, gone away from me. So many fish in the sea. Big fish in the sea.
