Sometimes Heartbroken

Sometimes Heartbroken

I know I still love you
After all that you’ve done
You tell me different lies
Than you told everyone

I try to deny
The pain that’s built up inside
Though, even when I smile
My heart starts to divide

Sometimes heartbroken
Now that I finally realize
The words that you’ve spoken
Were really all lies

Sometimes Heartbroken
I’m dying inside
And I can’t seem to get over you
No matter how hard I tried

Now every time I see you
I feel emptiness in my heart
But then I remember
How you deceived me from the start

Even then I had a feeling
That this may never last
But I can’t help thinking
About throwing away that past

Sometimes heartbroken
Now that I finally realize
The words that you’ve spoken
Were really all lies

Sometimes Heartbroken
I’m dying inside
And I can’t seem to get over you
No matter how hard I tried

So tell me why
You had to lie to me
You may have tricked everyone around you
But you were the one who just couldn’t see

Sometimes heartbroken
Now that I finally realize
The words that you’ve spoken
Were really all lies

Sometimes Heartbroken
I’m dying inside
And I can’t seem to get over you
No matter how hard I tried

Sometimes Heartbroken
As I look back on this
I find that I’m no longer broken
As these words pass my lips

Sometimes Heartbroken

Acid Rain

Acid Rain

When I fall in love with you
I feel my heart is falling
But you've fallen for someone else
Someone who doesn't love you like I do

I see you falling for them one by one
But you're falling in a deep dark hole
I think you're blinded by what you see
And I know you'll never see the sun

Day by day
You cause me pain
Should I stop loving you
Why do I keep loving you anyway

You're burning 
Through me
And my heart
Like acid rain

I wish that you could just see
How much pain you're causing me
And I still care so much for you
Even after all you're putting me through

Day by day
You cause me pain
Should I stop loving you
Why do I keep loving you anyway

When you're just 
Burning through me
And my heart
Like acid rain

Is there something I'm doing wrong
No matter how many times I tried to stay strong
And everything I tried to hide
Is everything you should feel inside

Day by day
You cause me pain
Should I stop loving you
Why do I keep loving you anyway

You're burning 
Through me
And my heart
Like acid rain

In a Dream

In A Dream

When I close my eyes
I can hear my cries
Because I kept seeing you
The fantasy of just us two

Too many thoughts pass my mind
And now I can’t leave you behind
Every fantasy that I think about
Stays in my mind and won’t slip out

My imagination overtook me
My brain just blocked out reality
Now all I see is just your face
While my heart begins to race

In a dream
Or so it seems
I am caught up in a fantasy
I see no trace of reality

So now
I don’t know how
To find someone new
So I don’t have to think of you

In a dream

I want to run away
Because there isn’t a day 
When I don’t think about you
In my mind, it’s only true
  
My imagination overtook me
My brain just blocked out reality
Now all I see is just your face
While my heart begins to race

In a dream
Or so it seems
I am caught up in a fantasy
I see no trace of reality

So now
I don’t know how
To find someone new
So I don’t have to think of you

I want to get to know the real you
But all the while I see it through
That you’ll be in my fantasies
I’m not that sure what’s happening to me

In a dream
Or so it seems
I am caught up in a fantasy
I see no trace of reality

So now
I don’t know how
To find someone new
So I don’t have to think of you

In a dream

Hiding

Hiding

There’s another part of me
That feels the insecurities
I try not to show it 
I try not to blow it

I try so hard now
The best way that I know how
I try not to know it 
I try not to show it

I’m hiding the real me
And I don’t want you to see
That I’m hiding all the pain inside
But I no longer want to cry

I’m pretending to be 
Someone who isn’t me
I’m hiding 
Yeah, I’m hiding

I don’t want you to see
What’s really inside of me
I try not to tell you
I know I don’t have to

Did I give it away
Was it something I wanted to say
Do you know what I’m thinking
I feel like I’m sinking

I’m hiding the real me
And I don’t want you to see
That I’m hiding all the pain inside
But I no longer want cry 

I’m pretending to be
Someone who isn’t me
I’m hiding
Oh, I’m hiding

When you look into my eyes
You’re seeing someone filled with lies
When you look at me
That may be all you see

I’m hiding the real me
And I don’t want you to see
That I’m hiding all the pain inside
But I no longer want to cry

I’m pretending to be
Someone who isn’t me
I’m hiding
Yeah I’m hiding
