As Long As I Have You

Heartless

It was easy to lie,
When everything wasn't true,
It was easy to kill,
When that's what you've been trained to do.

It was hard to love,
When everything you were taught to do was hate,
It was even harder to care,
When all you learn was to be cruel.

I could do all these things in a heartbeat,
Because that was what I was taught to do,
I was a drone that was ready to kill,
So you can imagine my surprise when I met you.

With you, there was a hesitation,
I didn't understand it,
My walls were crumbling down,
Even before I realized it.

The way you smiled at me,
Was enough to make me think,
The way you talk to me,
Was enough to make me see.

I was a monster,
A heartless piece of trash,
Not because I had killed,
Not because I had lied,
But because I was sent here to kill you.

Even if you were the biggest threat to me,
I can't bring myself to hate you,
Even if you were my biggest enemy,
I can't bring myself to kill you.

You were my downfall,
There's nobody else who could have melt this frozen heart,
And because I love you,
I have to leave,
To spare you from all my evil plots.

I was still heartless,
But it's only because I had given my heart to you.
