Heartbreaking Lullaby

She looks so pretty standing there smiling

Little does anyone know she fell asleep crying

He looks so gorgeous standing there smiling

Little does anyone know he too fell asleep crying

Standing in silence and neither knows what to say

Because they’ve barely spoken since that day

He ended it and she didn’t know why

They had so many plans to do together now all that’s left is a painful goodbye

Five months later she finds out the truth

He said it was real but still she was being used

Her heart was broken

With all the lies spoken

She didn’t know what to say or do

Or even if he meant ‘I love you’

She tries to move on and push away the pain

But the scars still remain

She knows what goes around comes around

And everything has happened for a reason, she’s found

He sits at home kicking himself for what he’s done

He gave up her for someone else and now he has no one

Because that girl used him like he did to her

His eyes fill with tears as he thinks of all the memories and the world around him becomes a blur

He turns to her because he doesn’t know what else to do

Together they’ll help each other pull through

And even though their situations are a little different

They’ll help each other take out the dents

She may still be hurt but she cares enough to be sad

Because what happened to him was just as bad

As they help each other while they cry

They realize its their heartbreaking lullaby
