Broken but mended

part 1

Every word you planted
Grew in me
Every smile you fringed
Bit by bit it got me crazy

Did you have to lie?
For I swear the trust was the great walls of China
How could you betray the life I shared?

Heaven let go and says
"She chose her path"
Hell got lose and said
"She's one of us for she had sinned"

How do I love to trust again?
My heart bleeds and has no end
Will I die? Cos life's no more fun
I see your face in every soul

I have sealed and not to love
You have hurt and had your peace
A fool I was and not again
My tears have dried cos they are weak

Why did you leave?
The promises you made?
What's the difference?, cos you've killed a soul

I have drown and gone to rest
Call me in the morning for joy may come
I've sewed and got it sealed
The next I pity, for I love no more.
