The Setup
You touched my soul,
You pulled out my heart,
From the very start.
You snatched it so fast
Left me clenching for breath
Like a knife inside that twists and turns
My soul felt like it burned
You touched my heart and soul
In a way that you did not know
Calculating in what you did
Conniving at what you said
Everything we had you let go
Exposing my very soul
There is no going back
For something that we lack.
