Death of the Heart Beat
I wanted to turn around and just walk away
Every feeling inside of me begged me to stay.
things were different than what they used to be,
but i couldn't blame no one else but me.
i was always taught if you couldn't say nothing nice, to keep quite,
It seems the older I get, the less I want to try it.
For my feelings and my heart had been hurt too many times,
Why should I let down the guard, for someone strange to blow my mind?
Time and time again I told myself not yet
I couldn't keep giving what hadn't been given back yet.
Who is to say what my feelings should be,
After all I claimed ownership, because they belonged to me.
And though he stood there without murmor, without plea
The furhter I walked away, the more I became weak.
What was the connection that silence couldn't break,
How much of this love thing, was I really willing to take?
And just at the brink of turning the corner,
My heart stopped and so did I,
It was then I realized without his love, the beat of my heart would die.
