Hurt

Inside, I’m dying, and what’s left of my heart is so very broken
I wish I knew that this would happen before I gave my heart to you
I gave you everything, but that wasn’t enough
You took my heart and just threw it away

I told you I loved you.  Words I wish were never spoken
Did you really not mean it when you told me you loved me too?
In the end, everything I gave you was more than just stuff
Maybe my heart will heal one day

I don’t hate you, quite the opposite is true
I wish you still cared, but I am someone you quickly forgot
Why did you treat me so much like shit
While telling me I did nothing wrong?

Tell me now what can I do?
Was my love for you really all for naught?
No.  I’m not going to through a fit
But I may just have to write a song
