left behind without a trace

In a world where love has no meaning
Its to damn easy to just walk away
So we throw in the towel to quickly
Telling the one that you love you can't stay

It hurts to be left here just floating
Knowing your love has just left you behind
All your anger boils over into emotion
While you tear out the hair from your mind

You wish you were asleep and just dreaming
Please take away this pain in my life
I gave my whole soul to a heartless human
Now they've pierced my heart with a knife

We spend all our lives not knowing
All the dreams we've might have shared
If more meaning was put into the word love
Only then would people change if they cared

I love you are words without no meaning
When you lie to the love of your life
Its like living in a fictional movie
Only its you that walks with a knife

So here I remain left here just scheming
A heart crumbled by the weight of my tears
A world where everythings made to be broken
When the word escape controls all your fears

So I guess you've really moved on
Does my picture in your draw still bother you
Will it keep you awake now that I'm gone
Did you tear it right between me and you

I don't want to fall in love again
To fall so fast blind into a tailspin
To crash and burn right from the start
To return to the place i've already been

I hope you remember to turn out the light
And place your picture right by your heart
Before you turn in and call it the night
You'll never know how much you've torn me apart
