brittle heart, broken soul

stole my hope, my joy, leaving only pain
walls surround my soul, keeping hurt away

no love to give, taken all away
dream of life, my heart weeps within

cry at night, longing for the day
dread the day, longing for the night

never forgive, my hate shall endure
never again trust, I shall not be hurt

my years go by, life flees from me
emptiness inside, happiness gone

who is for me, friends turn away
alone in my pain, sorrow, shame

all alone, no comfort I see
no love to give, taken all away

I hear your cry, your pain is mine
open your heart, my love is for you

kisses for your brow, embracing you
my child, I have always loved you

I give my hope and joy, receive from me
I am ever faithful, always true

I am for you, you are my delight
open your heart, my love is for you
