Once upon a time

My heart sang a song

To a cripple-hearted man

Who could not sing along

I tried my best to help him,

to teach him all the words

But I lost the dearest parts of me

When he re-wrote it

Verse by verse

He re-arranged my tender heart

In hopes that I'd fufill

All of his unfair desires

That a Romantic always will

But who am I to blame him?

It's not that hard to see

Each time he played his sinful game,

Deeper love awakened in me

I lost my very essence,

Each and every piece I loved

I sold my soul to the devil in him

Which claimed to be from Above

"It's all your fault

You crazy bitch,

You cannot be alone

I can't accept you

You're a liar

You damage everyone you know"

But I being youthful

And open to change

Let those haunting words become

The inner voice inside my brain

He broke me down with curses

To the point of no return,

Then said it was truly my own fault,

I let myself get burned

I clinged to him for way too long

Although my loved ones,

They warned me

Something was dreadfully wrong

I could not listen

I was too afriad

So convinced by him

That I was going insane

He memorized that song I'd sing

But went and changed the notes

To take the credit and to say

It was his song that he wrote

He never cared to make me feel whole,

Broken spirits like his

Crave the innocent souls

And now he can rest at peace tonight

After seducing me to give him my light.
