"Broken Strings"

It's hard to find the right words to describe how I feel about you
I'm trying to break down these walls, but it's too late, I can't
Can't get me out of this mess, my only option is to escape
I pretend I don't care, but I'm hurting more than you know

Trying to build a bridge, but the storm is too strong
I know the time has passed and I can't rewind it back
Although my heart and mind are closed, I still can't forget

No matter how hard I try, these wounds won't heal
These lies that you told me to hurt like venom
It slowly eats away my flesh
It's very hard for me to trust someone who has lied to me

I didn't mean to hurt you with my words
No matter how hard I try, I can't move on from here
My only option is to cut all the strings that bind us
You lied to me and I don't know how to react

It's very hard for me to trust you now
My feelings for you have changed somehow
What did you expect... for me to ignore?
The lies which make it so hard to trust and adore?

My heart and mind were both shut tight
Your pain is one I can no longer fight
The stories told, are hidden under the rug
Hiding them only makes matters worse

No more explanations for what happened
I try to convince myself but it's all a blur
What did you expect for us to survive?
The lingering echoes...
