I broke my rules for you As the sky had broken with my rain Twice did the swinging bells ring Twice did the windchimes sway Twice were chances given for you to hit true But alas, both arrows missed the target Because both were aimed for my heart And silent, bleeding, did I take the bow
I broke my beliefs for you As each line was rewritten in red ink Burning paper drifted into ashes Aflame as the memories started to leave Twice did the sky thunder into sparks Twice did the match fade back into smoke Twice was the love chained and retained But alas, a heart is wild and will escape its cage And twice, did it return beaten and bruised So silent, bleeding, did I take the bow
