V1:
You remember how small I used to be.
I smiled and clinged to you
as you reached your hand down.
So many years sprinted by,
as so the heartbreaks crawled.
Chorus:
How do you love someone so broken?
Ready to give up when everything was stolen.
With a worn wall crumbling to the floor.
How did you love me for so long?
I will miss you so much,
but I just simply don't belong.
V2:
So many times I believed you
when you said you loved me,
but not now can my heart
live and breathe.
Right now, I can't be the
little girl you always wanted to hold.
Chorus:
How do you love someone so broken?
Ready to give up when everything was stolen.
With a worn wall crumbling to the floor.
How did you love me for so long?
I will miss you so much,
but I just simply can't stand
Bridge:
One more arrow and I will lose it.
One more letter to carry in my pocket.
That one letter, a letter to you
about how sorry I am
for giving up on us.
V3:
I want to let you know that
I still wear your ring and
I hope it gives you purpose.
Because all I feel is empty
and nothing.
Chorus:
How do you love someone so broken?
Ready to give up when everything was stolen.
With a worn wall crumbling to the floor.
How did you love me for so long?
I will miss you but
How could I be so jaded and so blind?
My mind said I didn't want you,
but my heart said I did.
How did you love me for so long?
You know that I am broken,
and I just simply don't belong... here.
I don't belong,
not here,
not now.
But I still wear your ring.
I hope it still gives you purpose,
because all I feel is empty
and nothing.
