I met you in a dream,

your peircing eyes were staring straight at me.
just some feelings expressed in poetry,

Well, I knew it’d never last,
that you’d eventually become part of my fucked up past.
A sweet memory, I’d look back on, and know I was a fool.

I was just a silly little girl, with her hopes to high.
My wings to small for me to fly,
But I took the jump, and now I’m facing the fall;
Wings broken, heart shattered, I lie staring at the sky,
and I can think is, “why?”
Erase the pain, that’s darkening my heart,

Deep within myself, I feel my soul become untamed.
I feel it begin to rearrange.
I don’t need you to feel anymore.

No longer, will you break me.
No longer will you make me.
I’ve cut my ties; I could care less about our goodbyes.

I’ll take this shattered heart, and learn to love,
I’ll take these broken wings and learn to rise above,
I can finally live without you.

And he speaks, extrodinary words, for an ordinary boy,
talking about love, like he knew what it was,
He was wise beyond belief, though he couldn't see the beauty in him.
He thought she deserved better, he thought he wasn't good enough,
and with three simple words, their worlds collided.

She spoke with such arrogancy, for a young girl.
talking about things, like she could really change the world.
She was beautiful beyond belief, though she saw a monster in the mirror.
She knew he deserved better, she knew she wasn't good enough,
and with three simple words, their worlds collided.
--------------------------------

She keeps her heart hidden in a veil of ice,
locking it up from the rest of the world,
and forever it'll stay, in that little silver case.
forever beating, forever alone,
always trying to protect herself, from heartbreak,
to worried that some silly boy will break it,
and, she'll die alone, never knowing what its like,
to be in love.

Where were you?
When my world came crashing down,
When I couldn’t find the strength to continue.

Where were you?
When everything began to crumble,
When I needed a shoulder to cry on.

Where were you?
When it felt like it was me against the world.
When I was all alone.

I found out,
I don’t need you to breathe.
To stand on my own.
I found out,
You weren’t the man I thought you were.
You were a child.

I found out,
You loved me,
But you also loved her.

I found out,
People change.
I’m glad I did.
