you reminded my heart
what it felt like to be loved
i held you too tight
and you promised
to never let me go
But then you left
Before I was ready to let go
for that
i will always hate you
because you broke my heart

i dont live in new york
i never have
thats just not where i reside
im a tenant paying rent
inside of myself
im a voice thats screaming  on the inside
never seen the light


i dont live in new york
i never have
thats just not where i reside
ive got two windows
but you probably will see them as my eyes
they cant be opened cant be used
cant feel the wind on my face

i dont live in new york
i never have
thats just not where i reside
i might just think to much
im a dreamer
whos just pulling
at the seems trying to learn why

she is green
like the jealousy she seethed with
she was attached to the hip
at least that's what they all said
but in reality
she wanted to be him
to be best friends with me

he is blue
like the tears that escape him
he was my best friend
he is si depressed he steals his own heart beat
from me
from his family
from a planet that didn't love him

she is green
like the grass that grows on his grave
like the trees that line a meadow just for him and i
and she does not wait long
to replace his heartbeat
filling the quiet meadow
that i only shared with him
with sounds of anger and sadness
leaving its sacred ground broken

he is blue
like the flowers on his casket
as hes lowered into the dirt
like the blue bells that grew in our meadow
taken from me entirely
lost to me
lost to his family
lost to a planet that never loved him
but when im alone
his screams find me
and i wonder back to the now tainted
meadow

when you feel it the first time
you wont have a clue
what your even feeling
is it love is it lust
you will ask yourself if you are okay
and of course you arent
why would you be
your shattered your broken
your body seems lifeless
and yet you will want it again
because its the only way he shows love

if i said you broke my heart
would you say sorry
if i told you i was missing
would you care
cause when the nights are dark
and im alone with out you
and in all honesty
you where made for me and no her
i wonder if you will wake up
because you dont even see
what you lost and when the nights are cold
and your this bold
i think youve seen my nightmares

i was three
and i thought you loved
and you let me
knowing i was young
knowing i didnt understand

i was three
and i thought it was okay
and you let me
knowing i was young
knowing i didnt understand

i was three
and i thought you cared for me
and you let me
knowing i was young
knowing i didnt understand

i was three
and i thought you where happy to see me
and you let me
knowing i was  young
knowing i didnt understand

when the smile you hide behind
becomes to much a weight to carry
you will be 16 the first time
it will fall for no reason
you wont understand why
you will feel the heat of the tears
as they run down your face
and you will see how old you truly are

when the smile you hide behind
becomes to much a weight to carry
you wont understand why
you knew you would grow
knew you had to get older
but you realize then
that everything you knew
everything you loved
it will hurt you wont know why
but you thought you would never make it this far
and yet you did

so when the smile you hide behind
becomes to much a weight to carry
remember that you will get stronger
and when your ready
you can pick it back up again
