Burning Heart (song), by *~Mik@y1@~* Subscribe to rss feed for  *~Mik@y1@~*

I met you one day.
I was captivated
By the things you say.
I liked you.
You convinced me
That you liked me too.
I got caught in your game;
Was unaware I was being played.

Chorus:
Burn a hole through my heart again.
Make the fire start—you win.
Burn it until it’s ash.
Guess it’s no better than trash.
Watch it burn, burn, burn,
As the seasons turn.
Laugh to yourself—I know you will
Ignoring the hope you kill.

You led me on,
I never looked back.
I blindly went—
Not judging the track.
You played along
Until there was fire in my eyes.
Then disposed of me—
Deciding to find a new prize.

Chorus:
Burn a hole through my heart again.
Make the fire start—you win.
Burn it until it’s ash.
Guess it’s no better than trash.
Watch it burn, burn, burn,
As the seasons turn.
Laugh to yourself—I know you will
Ignoring the hope you kill.

You burnt my heart,
Knowing you’d break it apart.
You made me weak,
Treated me cheap.
You gave me happiness,
Then ripped it away.
Said I was special,
Then drove me away.

Chorus:
Burn a hole through my heart again.
Make the fire start—you win.
Burn it until it’s ash.
Guess it’s no better than trash.
Watch it burn, burn, burn,
As the seasons turn.
Laugh to yourself—I know you will
Ignoring the hope you kill.  ©
