Heartless



I could speak a million words and never reach you
You can talk all you want
In the end I still know it was all untrue
Some people were born without a heart
Messing with them and you will be left with scars
They will take you for there slave
Destroying every part of you that once was brave
Never once letting go of there pride and taking the heat
Nor acknowledging that they lied
