Oh heart, my heart Don’t break today Reason upon reason Please find your way Closing in, oh pain retreat Leave me now, as I near defeat Tears please stop Don’t tease these eyes Spill down the cheeks That believed the lies Hide away, please hide away Bury the pain away, oh please don’t cry Weak and feeling trapped inside Break away from this Leave it all behind Love I lose, I can’t deny This grip on me, oh how I try Broken yes, but they just can’t know Hidden inside, oh how it grows Losing you...
