You may think I’m invincible, that nothing phases me
God that man is so strong, someone that we can all depend on
You couldn’t be more wrong
Because you will never see behind the mask
That papers over my fundamental cracks
The perfect disguise for that soft, vulnerable centre of mine
Hiding on the inside
Now those cracks are beginning to show
Months of silence are taking their toll
The solid foundations we built are now under strain
I sit defenceless with my hands tied
Helpless to stop the pain
All I can do is pray
That you won’t turn and walk away
But in reality, you’re experiencing conflict all the same
Are things beginning to change
Not much word from you, I sit and wonder
I tell you to let it all go only to discover
That you have feelings for another
Flashbacks to my worst nightmare as I remember with shame
The last love I destroyed, where I was the one to blame
Trust me a heart is easy to break, a relationship easy to tear apart
When you know what to say
Those fatal words of mine
Cut deeper than a knife
And I’ve never regretted anything more in my life
Is this the beginning of the end
Are we heading the same way
Lightening is about to strike twice
I can’t let this happen again
But I’m scared sick by the cold dagger in my chest
That tells me you won’t stay
I’ve never been happier than when we had it perfect
Those are the times that make all the pain worth it
I remember the days when I couldn’t hide the smile
And even the moments when I dared to dream
Of walking down the Isle
Looking into your beautiful eyes
Saying ‘I do’
And spending the rest of my life with you
Then we’d be together you and me
Two hearts beating as one:
A Family
That’s the perfect fantasy
But right now, its as far away as it will ever be
With you by my side I can stand so tall
Though I fear I’m about to lose it all
And this time as I look to the heavens
Begging God to hear the plea
Of a scarred man broken on his knees
I can’t stop the flood
As the tears take their fall.
